Ellie impacts the game in a variety of ways. Offensively, she is a scoring threat at the perimeter as well as the interior. She can score with her back to the basket and has solid footwork and post moves on the low block. Ellie can shoot it from the outside and put the ball on the deck to get to the rim or put up a floater in the lane. Defensively, she is a phenomenal shot blocker that made the opposing team think twice before bringing it inside. I also like her ability to get steals and force turnovers. (Featured Image)
Highlights
Abby is a good two-way player that creates turnovers with her immense ball pressure and intensity. She was feeling it from downtown and hit several 3’s in the game against Rockford Elite. Loved her energy and effort on both ends of the floor!
Skyler is a guard with good length and athleticism. She was in attack mode on offense and displayed a really nice dribble pull-up game from the mid-range. She also made a great effort to rebound the ball and is a solid on-ball defender.
Naomi was effective off the bounce and has a lot of crafty dribble moves that she used to gain penetration to score at the rim or dish it to open teammates. She is a difficult cover and a very good one on one player. In a hard-fought game against a talented WV Thunder Bassett team Naomi came through in the clutch and nailed back-to-back 3’s with the clock winding-down to help her team get the victory.
Juliya has a high motor and plays hard on both ends. She made strong drives to the hoop and did a good job drawing fouls and found herself at the free throw line very often. I also like how she got on the floor for loose balls, blocked shots, came up with steals, and pushed the pace on the fast break.

Gabby Bassett
Gabby is young player with a mature game and loads of potential. She is super competitive and has the leadership qualities and intangibles you like to see in a lead guard. She is a skilled ball handler that controls the tempo and makes good decisions with the ball in her hands. Gabby is also a lethal shooter from long distance and a clever defender that finds ways to get steals and create turnovers.
Charlotte is a deadly 3-point shooter with a picture-perfect shooting form. She is capable of knocking down multiple 3’s in a game and is always ready to let it fly from deep. She plays within herself and is a good teammate that knows her role when she steps on the floor.
