Quinn is the ideal scoring guard; she has an arsenal of moves that gets her past defenders and into the teeth of the defensive. During the day she put on a show putting the ball in the basket from all 3 levels of the floor. Players were thrown off by her speed and body control when taking contact in paint.
Tori Baker– Highlands Ranch
Tori is as quick as they come with the ball in her hands, all while playing at her own pace. She gets downhill in transition as often as she wants all while scanning the floor to find the open teammate. Tori has the ability to knock down 3 with the best of them and she proved that Sunday.
Hana Belibi– Regis
Hana Belibi already has the perfect college build which gives her an advantage on both ends of the floor. Offensively she is un-guardable by opposing wings/bigs with her handle being good enough to get past defenders and create for herself and others. Defensively she has the speed and athleticism to guard 1-4 with ease.
Ezra Simonich Ezra Simonich 5'10" | SG Highlands Ranch | 2025 State CO – Highlands Ranch
Ezra Simonich Ezra Simonich 5'10" | SG Highlands Ranch | 2025 State CO is more just a knock down shooter, and she has continued to prove that throughout the summer. She can setup the offensive, put teammates into positions to be successful as well as defend opposing teams’ best player. Where Ezra caught me surprise on Sunday was a willingness to take rim aggressively and draw fouls.
– Cherry Creek
is the X-Factor player that everybody loves to play with but never play against. She can do a little bit of everything on both ends of the floor but thrives on the defensive end, she refuses to get scored on and put other guards in tough spots time and time again. On offensive she seemed to do whatever her needed at the time whether to be knocking down jumpers or getting to the rim.
Damara Allen– Cherokee Trail
Over the summer Damara has really started to put together all the pieces of her game, she is big guard that pushes the paces offensively forcing the defense to make a decision. Throughout the day she dominated at all levels, whether it was attacking the rim or knocking down jumpers, on defense she defended aggressively without fouling. Damara has really taken the time to make sure teams have to respect her as a shooter as well as a slasher.
Kenna Wagner– Rocky Mountain
One thing about Kenna Wagner is whenever she takes the floor, she is going to set the tone for her team. She is fast paced, up-tempo guard that loves to push the ball in transition and get her team the easiest look possible. Kenna goes into her sophomore year looking as good as any guard in her class and is ready to step and take on a bigger role.
Zaraiyi rcia Zaraiyi rcia 5'6" | PG Mullen | 2024 CO – Mullen
Zaraiyi rcia Zaraiyi rcia 5'6" | PG Mullen | 2024 CO was a player that took everyone by surprise during Top 250 Expo. The 2024 guard displayed her compete game over the course of the day. She has the height and length that made her un-guardable at times. Zaraiyi showed she can score at all will from all three levels of the floor as well as couple of deep 3’s to close out the half. With Mullen going into a rebuild this year Zaraiyi will be a real bright spot.
Tayva Phillips Tayva Phillips 5'6" Thomas B Doherty | 2023 CO – Doherty
There are those players that come back after small breaks that you can tell have mean in the gym and working on their craft and Tayva Phillps falls in that category. She had a great day shooting the ball from all over floor. All while being unselfish and getting teammates involved for great looks. Tayva is stepping into a bigger role as the season approaches and her performance on Sunday proves she is ready for it.
