Her team may have fallen in a few of those games but it was never due to lack of effort. If Kinnetz keeps up this style of play moving forward, she is definitely going to be seeing a collegiate floor before her career comes to an end. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["335763"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6653663bc083e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='335763' first='Molly' last='Knight'] was a leader with the b[program_tooltip program_id='712375' first='All' last='in'] her hands this weekend.

It seems like more times then not, she wants to work her own matchup so she can assist someone else on her team when the defense overplays. This [program_tooltip program_id='715556' first='Illinois' last='Dream'] 2025 team put together an impressive weekend with some big wins and Knight is a main reason for that. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["879957"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6653663bc087c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='879957' first='Syncere' last='Williams'] is a do-it-all type prospect.

Whether that be guarding her opponent in the full court for a game or trying to stop a dominant post threat. It doesn't matter. Whatever she can do, she will and that says a lot about the player she really is. Williams put together a nice weekend overall.

We had a handful of prospects standout and do their thing this weekend on the hardwood at the PGH Midwest Extravaganza. In this article we cover five players that put their team on their shoulders, helping them put together a rememberable weekend in Chicago as a whole.
