Continue ReadingThe MPSSAA playoffs are underway. 2A should be one of the more exciting brackets the state has to offer. Here is a look at some of the top prospects and some of the under the radar players.
Kensi Bancroft, Francis Scott Key, 2025, Forward
Kensi caught my eye at the Public vs. Private Challenge Remix. Her toughness around the basket and physical play really stood out. She’s a good, active defender with some length and a nose for the ball. She really attacks the offensive glass
Nia Green Nia Green 6'0" | SF Hammond | 2024 State MD , Hammond, 2024 Guard
Nia has had an outstanding season and is a big-time player. She is a six-foot point guard that can score and set the table for her teammates. She gets after it on defense too, using her length and speed to smother ball handlers. Hammond went 22-0 thanks to her work.
Sara Yarnell Sara Yarnell 6'1" | PF Hammond | 2025 State MD , Hammond, 2025, Forward
Sara put up a 23-point, 14 rebound performance recently against Wilde Lake and has had a great season. She anchors the defense with her shot blocking and quick reactions to penetrating guards. She has a nice shot out to the three point line and a good touch around the basket.
Myah Hazelton Myah Hazelton 6'4" | PF Sparrows Point | 2024 State MD , Sparrows Point, 2024, Center
Myah has had an amazing season, dominating Baltimore County. She put up a 30-point, 20 rebound game and showed why she has signed with Virginia Tech. At 6’4″ she has legit size and a lot of versatility to her game.
Brooke Bolesta Brooke Bolesta 6'0" | SF Fallston | 2026 MD , Fallston, 2026, Wing
Brooke is a scrappy and tough wing with exceptional athleticism. She has added range to her game all the way out to the three-point line. Defensively she is active and has good instincts. She is capable of propelling Fallston to a win or two in the playoffs.
Aleah Rodgriguez, Largo, 2025, Guard
Aleah is a sharp shooting guard that can get hot and flip a game around. She is super quick and very dangerous in transition, as she can get all the way to the rim or pull up from three.
Harli Hamlett, Century, 2024, Guard
I saw Harli at the Panther Classic in December and she was impressive enough to walk away with the MVP award. She is a good ball handler and passer and showed the ability to get buckets as well. Look for her to have a big game and help push Century past Wilde Lake in the first round.
Lauren Kraft Lauren Kraft 5'11" | SF Hereford | 2024 State MD , Hereford, 2024, Guard
Kraft is a big-time scorer that should put up some good numbers against the winner of the Randallstown/Carver game as Hereford has a first-round bye. Even with some extra attention being paid to her by the defense, she’ll able to drop at least 18 to 20 points.
