Sophia Kline Sophia Kline 6'1" | PF Berne Union | 2023 State OH , 6-1 2023, Berne Union
Listed as a stretch 4, Sophia has a very soft touch around the basket, excellent footwork and can make the play for her team. Very comfortable in the paint, can score baseline or uses the glass well. Can attack the rim with authority and play through contact. I went back and watched some additional film on her and was impressed how poised she is, able to seal off her defender and score. Oh and I strongly recommend you don’t leave her open from the perimeter.
Rylee Sagester Rylee Sagester 5'6" | CG Tri Village | 2023 State OH , 5-7 2023, New Madison Tri Village
Her game continues to grow, and Rylee (pictured left) has a great season for the Patriots. She has received every POY award given so far this year from her league to her district Her incredible numbers from behind the arc continues to grow and was only held to single-digits twice this season. Finished the year with 107 threes which dishing out four assists per game
Ava Sholtis Ava Sholtis 5'8" | CG Fort Loramie | 2022 State OH , 5-10 2022, Fort Loramie
Had a very solid season for the defending state champs who were eliminated by Cincinnati Country Day last week in the regionals. Ava is a multi-sport athlete who has a good tough in the paint, great body control and able to use her athleticism to control the style of play. Has excellent range behind the arc, gets her shot off quickly.
Bri Claxon Bri Claxon 5'7" | PG South Webster | 2022 State OH , 5-9 2022, South Webster
An offensive threat as soon as she touches the floor. You have to know where she is at all times on the floor, and she will hurt you from everywhere. Excellent range from beyond the arc. Plays well in transition and can push the ball for an easy score. Very good basketball IQ, strong on the boards.
Corri Vermilya Corri Vermilya 5'8" | SG Loudonville | 2024 State OH , 5-9 2024, Loudonville
Complete all around threat for Loudonville, able to beat you from both the inside or out. Can put the ball on the floor and get to the rim and finish. One word to describe Corri (featured photo above) is smooth. Great handles and can create well. Loves to play in transition and able to finish. She will just keep getting better. Her numbers are amazing, averaging 27.5 points, 13 rebounds, 5.5 steals per game this season, shooting 49% from the field, 75% from the line, 36% from the three with 21 double-doubles. Scored 40 against Johnstown who was a district finals team, 40 against Columbia and had 20+ points in all but one of their games this season. Loudonville finished 21-5 this season.
