The 5 Highest Ranking '25 Power Forwards Entering The Season

What a great time to speak about a group that has so much talent and various skillsets. The senior power forwards are collectively a strong point for the class. These girls aren't just proficient at a couple aspects of the game, rather well-versed players that impact the game on multiple levels. Below are the top 5 power forwards in the senior class coming into the schoolyear.     Coleen Phiri (2025) | 5'11 PF | Tilton   Coleen Phiri has had herself a major summer that helped lead her into the #1 player at the position and the #8 ranked player in the entire class. Brute strength mixed with some elite nimble footwork for someone at the position. Catching and ripping off the perimeter is a skill Coleen does well. She has guard like ball control underneath the 3-point line. Phiri is a matchup nightmare from the mid-post, face-ups off the initial post up and in transition. Coleen has the athletic ability to play a point forward which coaches have to make an immediate adjustment to. Most teams don't have a player that is so multifaceted. She can also defend 3 different positions comfortably. Coleen plays hard throughout the course of the game. She'll dive for loose balls and sacrifice her body when taking charges for the betterment of the team. One of the toughest players in the class. There aren't too many players that bring what Collen can to the game. She has plenty of offers and will surely add to the collection throughout the year. Phiri is expected to have a major season for Tilton.     [player_tooltip player_id='296973' first='Olivia' last='VanPatten'] (2025) | 6'2 PF | St. George's   Olivia is coming in as the #2 ranked player at the position. VanPatten brings an excellent combination of experience of high-level production with versatility from the inside and from the 3. She shoots the ball exceptionally well for someone her size. She isn't a player that can just hit shots from the outside, rather Olvia offers sniper like abilities from the power forward position that can shift the direction of a game. VanPatten is a valid source of scoring from the post as well. She creates space for herself which limits the need to put the ball on the floor. Once she seals defenders, she can turn over both shoulders while getting great elevation off the floor. The Hofstra commit has a very soft touch around the rim and can give defenders a bunch of different finishes from under the free-throw line. VanPatten is looking to add to her storybook run for St. George's as they look to have a repeat run this year.     [player_tooltip player_id='295914' first='Bailey' last='Breen'] (2025) | 6'2 PF | Montverde   [player_tooltip player_id='295914' first='Bailey' last='Breen'] is another talented and versatile big in the class that can impact the game in many ways. The 6'2 power forward is a reliable stationary 3-point shooter that can get her shot off within the flow of the offense. Bailey can bang down low with the best of them too. She uses her strong frame to create space to be able to get to reverse pivots and jump hooks. The skilled big works well in many offensive sets and doesn't require the ball in her hands often. She is a major target once she seals defenders. It's hard to get around Breen once she seals and calls for the ball. Once getting into her post moves, she remains patient as she feels for what the defender is allowing. Bailey gives the ball up quickly and can even use her offensive potency to create for teammates from the free throw line. Defensively, Breen is a workhorse that matches up well with any big. Her powerful nature makes it hard for offensive players to comfortably operate. Breen is already a 2x champion and will taking her talents to Montverde this year.     [player_tooltip player_id='287177' first='Ella' last='Andrews'] (2025) | 6'0 PF | Dexter Southfield   Ella comes in as the #4 ranked power forward that is well-rounded and fundamentally sound. Andrews plays the right way no matter the situation. Never too high, never too low, just consistency on the offensive and defensive ends. She shoots the 3-pointer with a wide base that aids her in shooting with range, but doesn't overly rely on the longball to impact the game. A solid straight-line driver that aggressively attacks the rim. Ella can score from the short corner, mid-post and is a quality slasher. She uses two feet to secure and ensure that her strong drives are finished. Defensively, Andrews is one of the best help-side shot blockers. She is all over the place and her reaction time is impeccable. There aren't too many players in her class that bring the secondary post-side help she is capable of producing. Dexter Southfield is coming into the season with big aspirations and Andrews will help lead the way.     [player_tooltip player_id='282804' first='Kate' last='Allard'] (2025) | 6'2 PF | Bedford   The Boston University commit is a stretch forward with a long frame that can have an imprint on the game from inside and out. Kate has exceptionally long limbs that make it easy for her to reach to the rim on her finishes. Gazelle-like strides make her a threat in transition rim running. Allard can snag offensive rebounds from just about anywhere on the floor. She uses a pump fake to get jumpy defenders in the air and finish without disruption. Allard has a soft touch that is finesse, but requires a lot of skill to be able to position that ball of the glass with some of the angles she has under the rim. As a shooter, she is able to stretch the floor with her efficient and high arching 3-point jump shot. She catches the ball seamlessly and doesn't hesitate to let it fly from the perimeter. As a defender, Kate works hard to get the ball at high release points for blocks. She can stay in front of quicker players with her length and matches up well individually with most power forwards. Allard is particularly skilled big with a high ceiling for the dexterity.
