<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The recent update saw a ton of movement with prospects ascending up the rankings thanks to a big spring and summer of grassroots basketball. Statements were made from early April through late July as their respective stocks soared with each passing weekend event. We take a look at the biggest risers inside the Top 100 of this Senior Class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='414234' first='Azanah' last='Campbell'] | Paul VI | Jersey Gemz</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Previous Rank: #57 | New Rank: #17</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Her electricity was on full display, whether it was at EYBL stops around the country for the eval periods or at local non-live period events. She racked up an offer from UMBC shortly after EYBL Session 2 wrapped down in Houston. One of the silkiest mid-range jumpers you'll see, Azanah drained 15-footers at a high clip and burned opponents!. Reuniting with her high school squad for Philly Live, she gave everyone a preview of what's to come this winter with Paul VI! She was a standout at the NJ Jam Fest the weekend after, blazing the basket on offense and putting the clamps on defensively. She wrapped up the final two events of her AAU career at Session 3 followed up by Nike Nationals, where she helped the Gemz earn victories over Wisconsin Flight Elite, Tree of Hope and Midwest Elite Meanstreets (in Louisville) and Exodus NYC, Sports Academy Swish, Miami Suns and Pro Skills (in Chicago).</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='414236' first='Giavanna' last='Rogers'] | Bishop Eustace | Philly Rise</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Previous Rank: #169 | New Rank: #30</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>If there's one thing that Gi had clicking this summer it was her 3-point shot! She torched the Nike circuit off the catch and shoot, pulling the trigger without any hesitation. As a lead guard, she not only splashed in big buckets, but also manufactured in traffic and dished out dimes to her teammates. She rides this wave of confidence and momentum with her into her senior year at Bishop Eustace as she looks to guide the Crusaders to another South Jersey, Non-Public B appearance.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='591476' first='Maya' last='Abramson'] | Gill St. Bernard's | New Heights NYC</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Previous Rank: #72 | New Rank: #34</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Maya's inside-out game was BIG TIME this summer! Competing on the S40/P24 circuit, she started off the season hot at Spooky in April and followed that up with more dominance at Clash of the Clubs in May. By the time Jersey Live rolled around in June, she was in peak form, being assertive in the paint, fearless on the glass and efficient from outside. She was named a standout by the NJBCA in GSB's win against Lenape, dropping a team-high 21 points. Her loaded schedule saw her take on Hoosier Heat in Indiana, P24 Session 2 in Ohio and the P24 Championship in Kentucky, where she imposed her will and made her presence felt.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='333354' first='Sofia' last='Valente'] | Immaculate Heart Academy | Empire State Blue Flames</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Previous Rank: #63 | New Rank: #39</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Playing on one of the best AAU teams in America (regardless of circuit), Sofia played against the nation's top prospects day in and day out! She kicked off the April live period with big performances against Team Northeast, SLAAM and Legends U. Riding a wave of confidence into May, she helped her squad roll to a 4-0 record at the NJ Spring Classic, beating teams by an average of 32 ppg! For the season's second eval period, Sofia helped Empire State achieve a 3-1 record, including a 30-point victory over one of NJ's best teams in the Shoreshots. She announced her commitment to Lafayette shortly after and looked incredible at Jersey Live in June with her Blue Eagles. She sizzled hotter than the July sun out in Ohio and Kentucky, ending her AAU career having achieved so much success.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='583705' first='Kiyanna' last='Blacks-Stewart'] | Paul VI | Jersey Gemz</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Previous Rank: #83 | New Rank: #49</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>KBS was a double-double machine from April through July, playing tough and fearless around the rim! She was a force at every EYBL stop (Boo Williams, Clash of the Clubs, Run 4 Roses, Nike Nationals) and was a standout at Philly Live in June. She posted a 14-point, 11-rebound double-double to help Paul VI beat PA power Audenreid Charter and followed that up by another double-figure scoring performance (11 points) in a win against Bethlehem Catholic. She picked up offers from Central Connecticut State and Siena last month to cap off a very impressive season of summer ball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='844403' first='Penelope' last='Swarn'] | Hightstown | [program_tooltip program_id='714664' first='Team' last='Sharp']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Previous Rank: #109 | New Rank: #50</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>At 6'4", there wasn't an opponent foolish enough to enter her territory head-on. She deterred ball-handlers from driving inside out of fear of rejection and watching their shot get sent back into the stands! Running with the fiery [program_tooltip program_id='714664' first='Team' last='Sharp'], she saw eval periods in Ohio, Kentucky and right here in her home state of New Jersey. Folks took notice of her dominance down low, including the staff at HBCU Howard University, which P committed to earlier this month!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Previous Rank: #132 | New Rank: #52</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='333317' first='Olivia' last='Shaughnessy'] | Manasquan | [program_tooltip program_id='714654' first='NJ' last='Shoreshots']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Running with one of the best programs in the state, Liv helped the Shoreshots achieve multiple undefeated weekends through the season with her savvy PG skills. She took exceptional care of the ball and racked up both points and assists, proving to be a dangerous and reliable lead guard. She dazzled in Atlantic City against top Under Armour teams such as FBC United DMV and Western PA Bruins. A standout at Jersey Live in June, she led Squan to a 47-42 win over Immaculate Heart with a game-high 19 points. She rounded out the summer in July competing in three events in three different states (Ohio, Kentucky, New Jersey). After a successful 4-2 run at AC Championship Weekend, Olivia announced her commitment to Loyola.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='583702' first='Olivia' last='Selverian'] | Cherokee | Lady Runnin Rebels</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Previous Rank: #139 | New Rank: #70</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Olivia brought Jersey toughness to the PA dynasty Runnin Rebels, led by the legendary Bill McDonough, Sr. The sharpshooter kicked off the season is sizzling form, leading her team to a 3-1 weekend at the PA Showcase. She was a standout at Philly Takedown the weekend after, making her presence felt in the very first game (3-1 record) banging in four 3-pointers en-route to 17 points (6-8 FG). She was scary good at Spooky Nook, dazzling in front of D1 coaches as she helped the Runnin Rebels achieve a perfect 4-0 weekend and first place in the standings. She was solid at Jersey Live, helping Cherokee to a win over Downington East from PA. In the final event of her AAU career at Championship Weekend, her hot shooting remained on full display, helping the Rebels win the final three games by an average of 12 ppg! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='414239' first='Lilly' last='Riggi'] | Trinity Hall | [program_tooltip program_id='714654' first='NJ' last='Shoreshots']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Previous Rank: #148 | New Rank: #80</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p> Bringing size and strength to the Shoreshots' frontcourt, Lilly was unafraid to bang in the post with the biggest and baddest! As the season wore on, she even showed her ability to stretch out and pop behind the arc! She competed hard at live period events around the country, including Live at the Nook (in Pennsylvania), the AC Showcase (in New Jersey), Run 4 Roses (in Kentucky) and the Midwest Summer Classic (in Ohio). The scholastic eval session saw her reunite with her Trinity Hall squad to compete against some of the top high school teams in the country down at Best of Maryland. She announced her commitment to East Stroudsburg earlier this month.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='879722' first='Hannah' last='McGurr'] | Ramsey | United NJ</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Previous Rank: #136 | New Rank: #97</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hannah brought energy, reliable shooting and sharp vision to the National team. She approached each tournament with a team-first mentality, doing all the little things necessary to help her team win games. Her craftiness and excellent facilitation was a driving force behind United's 4-0 weekend at the AC Showcase. After a successful stretch down at Roses, it was back to Jersey to close out the season in Atlantic City. Playing in the final AAU event of her career, she was locked in and ultra focused, achieving an impressive 5-1 record!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Other notable risers</em></strong> <strong><em>in the Top 200:</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='414233' first='Alaina' last='LaMonica']- up 13 spots from #143 to #130</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='879752' first='Caitlin' last='Nagle']- up 16 spots from #147 to #131</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='879764' first='Michelle' last='Steele']- up 17 spots from #149 to #132</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='414235' first='Isabella' last='Serano']- up 44 spots from #185 to #141</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='879776' first='Adriana' last='Misciagna']- up 12 spots from #157 to #145</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='525318' first='Madelyn' last='Adamson']- up 46 spots from #193 to #147</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='333338' first='Marisa' last='Amitie']- up 23 spots from #196 to #163</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='414323' first='Mia' last='Firdman']- up 26 spots from #190 to #164</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='333353' first='Emily' last='Marinelli']- up 21 spots from #186 to #165</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='850498' first='Kieran' last='Brewster']- up 29 spots from #195 to #166</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='499079' first='Meghan' last='Connolly']- up 30 spots from #197 to #167</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
