<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The rankings have came out and there are some New Comers in the 2023 class have really stood out. Here are some of the kids that have impressed, and jumped off the sheet.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><img class="wp-image-375932" style="width: 150px;" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/01/Bryanna-Simmonds-scaled.jpg" alt=""><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='470419' first='Bryanna' last='Simmonds']</strong> 5'8" SG Deltona/OBC</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This kid can flat out hoop. Very smooth to the basket, with a soft touch around the goal to finish. She can hit the outside jumper. She plays as if she is playing with very little effort. A four year starter for the Deltona High Wolves. Cant wait to see her in action over the year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='470418' first='Shayla' last='Sandiford']</strong> 6'0" PF Oakridge/FGB</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 6 foot post has some very nice post moves, using spin moves, up fakes and other creative fakes to get the advantage. She can also hit the outside jump shot, as she is not afraid to step out for the shot. Runs the floor well as a post player. Sandiford already has a few offers, and will not be surprised if she does not sign before the school year ends.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><img class="wp-image-411892" style="width: 150px;" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/04/IMG_5782-scaled-crop-2048x1345-1649564365.jpg" alt=""><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='426955' first='Analyse' last='Rios']</strong> 5'4" PG Timber Creek/Nona Basketball</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The quick little guard from East Orlando has gritty presence about her. As a point guard, she shows a high IQ and maturity to run the offense and get the team going. She is a scrappy player that plays tough. She shows off her ability to handle the rock. She is also a stand out flag football player for the Wolves. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='470425' first='Kiara' last='Becker']</strong> 5'5" PG Ocoee/FGB</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Another new comer for the PGH rankings. Becker is a scrappy player that gets after it. She can hit the outside jump shot. Controls the ball in transition, while creating offense for her squad. Look forward to seeing her in action throughout the upcoming season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='470421' first='Nakayla' last='Green']</strong> 5'4" PG Cocoa/ECU</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Green plays on the loaded Cocoa High School squad that went 17-9 in 2022. She is a small crafty guard that can take the drive to the basket and finish with the foul. She can also hit the outside jump shot. Green is very active on the defensive side of the floor. <img class="wp-image-471110" style="width: 150px;" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/08/Nakayla-Green.jpg" alt=""></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='470426' first='Ava' last='Parrish']</strong> 5'6" SG Lake Howell/OBC</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Parrish is a track star on the basketball court. She routinely gets transition buckets using her speed and nose to the ball. Very gritty player, that shows a basketball IQ and determination to play. Finishing her High School career with the Silverhawks, she will have a good opportunity to showcase her talents with that squad.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Luke Zbynski is a Florida Prep Girls Hoops writer.
