So instead, I’m opting to break down prospects by area. Starting with far west Kentucky AKA the first and second regions. Here’s a look at the top players in the farthest west area of Kentucky.
The top ranked 2026 in our rankings, Sayler is a big guard with a well rounded skill set that already has D1 coaches lining up to get her. It will be interesting to see if she can carry Calloway to Rupp Arena.
Highlights
For Calloway to get to Rupp, they’ll need to get through Claire Johnson Claire Johnson 5’10” | CG McCracken County | 2024 State KY and McCracken County. Claire is a big time scorer who is going to have a tremendous offensive burden placed on her with Destiny Thomas now suiting up at Murray State.
Highlights
Staying with the theme of top guards in the first region, Waller is a certified bucket getting at the point guard spot. Marshall County made a deep run at Rupp a couple of years back and Skylar is aiming to get them back there this season (and next).
Highlights
Our first player from the second region, Adalyn is a versatile guard who is equally comfortable playing on or off the ball and will be in line for a bigger role in her Sophomore season for the Lady Colonels.
Highlights
Back to Region 1, Glisson is an efficient scorer and a really good three point shooter. Her shooting splits of 44/44/86 as a Sophomore are super impressive and she’s only going to get better as she gets stronger and converts more And 1 opportunities.
