No. 2 from No. 4: JaNyla Bush JaNyla Bush 5'4" | PG Link Academy | 2024 State MO Ι 5’6″ Ι PG Ι Whitfield: Always plays with an extremely high motor in order to fly around the court and make play after play. Exceptionally creative with the ball in her hands and has the ability to leave defenders in the dust. Top-notch passer and shooter from beyond the arc. Very aggressive on the defensive end.
No. 3 from No. 14: Kendall Puryear Ι 6’2″ Ι PF Ι Blue Springs South: Quite the force to be reckoned with when the ball is in her hands down low. Plays with her head on a swivel and blocks multiple shots per game with authority. Faces up any offensive player she goes against and secures boards with ease.
No. 4 from No. 5: Allie Turner Allie Turner 5'8" | CG John Burroughs | 2024 State MO Ι 5’8″ Ι CG Ι John Burroughs: Unique playmaker who always keeps defenders guessing due to her quick pull-up jumper and phenomenal passing ability. Arguably the top 3-point shooter in her class and possesses a smooth crossover to get herself open shots. Next-level attack of the rim due to her dribble drive and head-turning fake-outs.
No. 8 from No. 11: Summer Yancy Summer Yancy 6'0" | SF Raytown | 2024 State MO Ι 5’11″ Ι SF Ι Raytown: Very controlled and smooth player. Always a full-court threat due to takeaway mentality and polished drive to the basket. Is able to get off shots rather quickly and make bullet passes in the mid-range game. Extreme athleticism and hops to come up with rebounds for easy putbacks.
No. 10 from No. 15: Rory Conboy Rory Conboy 6'0" | PF Lindbergh | 2024 State MO Ι 6’0″ Ι SF Ι Lindbergh: Top-notch, 3-level scorer with a smooth shooting stroke and can hit from most areas. Excellent quick spin to attack the basket. Explosive with the ball and can power through defenders while having clean finishes. Naturally defends all five positions at a high level and has excellent court vision.
No. 11 from No. 16: Avery Simmons Avery Simmons 6'0" | CG Park Hill South | 2024 State MO Ι 6’0″ Ι SF Ι Park Hill South: Joy to watch as she plays with such grace. Has fine-tuned moves like the spin, accompanied by a quick shooting trigger. Can hit the pull-up jumper off the dribble from a variety of ranges, especially in the mid game. In-your-face defender who mirrors ball handlers and has great use of her hands.
No. 16 from No. 60: Clara Swearingen Clara Swearingen 5'4" | PG Nevada | 2024 State MO Ι 5’4″ Ι PG Ι Nevada: One of the most dangerous players from beyond the arc in Missouri. Not only is she deadly accurate, but she creates space and eludes defenders to pull up in an instant. Is an absolute pest defensively who does an outstanding job of reading and picking passes. Always a threat to go coast-to-coast.
