<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Seven Wichita area prospects are among the twenty who have joined the 2026 rankings. Enjoy a look at them, displayed in rank order.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='719101' first='Macayla' last='Askew'], 6'0", SF, Derby - Askew comes to Derby from Belleview West High School, Nebraska, and has been playing with [program_tooltip program_id='716118' first='Next' last='Level Eclipse'] this summer</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='719103' first='Olivia' last='McNair'], 5'7", PG, Eisenhower - At early May's MAYB Air Capitol Classic McNair showed herself to be quic, fast, controlled and able to make good decisions away from the ball. She played with Western [program_tooltip program_id='715643' first='Kansas' last='Elite'] this summer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='649148' first='Kaylee' last='Brunton'], 6'0", PF, Maize South - From the get-go last season Brunton was either first off the bench or starting when needed. Fast with good athleticism she blocked and altered shots on defense while scoring well around the blocks offensively. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='649152' first='McCoy' last='Pfister'], 5'3", PG, Kapaun Mt. Carmel - Playing for [program_tooltip program_id='716118' first='Next' last='Level Eclipse'] at the Wheat State Slam circuit stop Pfister showed a strong crossover move and some super quicks off the bounce. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='649153' first='Ali' last='Singhateh'], 5'8", CG, Maize South - Singhateh comes to the Eagles following a 3A state tournament appearance while playing for Eureka. Transfer from Eureka. 3.8.23 - v Cheney. Gave up ORB that led to a Hague score. Didn't box. occasionally doesn't move to the ball when passes and rebunds come to her. Hit her FTs. Gets caught on occasion standing watching the ball on D. Terrific hops and athleticism.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='719102' first='Aubrey' last='Navarette'], 5'8", F, Wichita Northwest - Navarette saw heavy minutes as a freshman and is expected, with at least two 2024s transferring, to step into a leadership role. At the Haven High jamboree in mid-June fellow scout Jeremy Deckard recognized her as having quality size with the potential to be a three level scoring threat. She has good range on her three ball and releases her jumper without hesitation. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='649150' first='Amelia' last='Bootsma'], 6'1", C, Wichita Independent - I have seen Bootsma play a bunch with [program_tooltip program_id='713097' first='Dynasty' last=''] this summer and it has been a lot of fun to watch her improve with each outing. A transfer from Wichita North, Bootsma has legitimate size with good length. Her north-south speed is solid and she plays hard on both ends. Her skills continue to develop and she will have a major impact on a team looking to return to the 2A state tournament. I like her consistency, competitiveness on the glass, and how she does not fear contact when seizing scoring opportunities. l</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
