On October 12th, I was able to attend Wootten's Under The Radar event in Las Vegas. There were prospects attending from all over the country.   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Here are some of the AZ standouts that I saw.</h2>   [player_tooltip player_id='749670' first='Noelle' last='Mulvanny'] Dream City Christian   Mulvanny was only one of two players who got moved up to the top 150 camp. She made her presence felt on both ends of the court. On defense, she had countless pass deflections and blocks. On offense, she used her athleticism to go by or over opponents. Noelle is definitely a prospect on the rise in the class of 2026.   [player_tooltip player_id='749672' first='Zoe' last='Carrillo'] Dream City Christian   Carrillo was one of the better players at the event. She's an exceptional rebounder and uses her body very well. She displayed a nice shooting touch out to 15 feet. She plays bigger than what she is on paper.   [player_tooltip player_id='205639' first='Sarah' last='Nakamura Miller'] Xavier   Sarah displayed her overall court instincts very well. Still working her way back from an injury, she played very well on defense and offense equally. On offense, she absorbed contact extremely well, still being able to finish.   [player_tooltip player_id='205653' first='Ysabel' last='Puente'] Dream City Christian   Puente played very well throughout the event, showing her offensive bag. She shot the ball well with range and was able to go by defenders using her right and left hand. Her passing was some of the best there, and she played solid on the ball defense.   [player_tooltip player_id='205648' first='Isabella' last='Majarucon'] Deer Valley   Izzy played what I call Bully Ball during this event. She used her aggressiveness to her advantage. She did an excellent job of initiating contact and drawing fouls. She also dropped some passes that were so good that they caught her teammates off guard.   [player_tooltip player_id='511033' first='Dianalynn' last='Howell'] Dream City Christian   Howell was one of the more efficient players at the event offensively. She hit shots from a variety of spots. She operated mostly close to the rim but showed that she could step out and hit the perimeter shot. She was also among the rebounding leaders at the event.   [player_tooltip player_id='443661' first='Olivia' last='Owens'] Phoenix Country Day   I caught Owens at the prestigious Wooten Top 150 event. Owens fit right in with the other prospects. She flashed her skills as an athletic ball handler in the open court. She played very good defense with active hands.   [player_tooltip player_id='530981' first='Ariella' last='Goren'] Dream City Christian   I came away very impressed with Goren's performance during this event. She hit a multitude of different shots, from 3s to attacking the rim. While she did score plenty, she also shined as a passer.   [player_tooltip player_id='263402' first='Andrea' last='Becerra'] Dream City Christian   Andrea had a good showing at this event, playing an overall solid floor game. The lefty shot it well from the perimeter and put the ball on the floor as well. She also showed her skills as a sneaky good passer. BONUS COVERAGE Nation Williams (Centennial, NV)   Nation is one of the top 2027 players on the west coast. Her game is advanced for her grade. She was also one of the two players selected for the Top 150 event. She got excellent low post position and rebounded very well. She played hard and only took high-percentage shots.
