Reiner and teammate AnnaClaire Bugbee AnnaClaire Bugbee 6'2" | C/PF Mandan | 2028 State ND create probably the most dominate front-court in the entire state. She is incredibly strong around the basket and isn’t afraid of contact or physical play. Other players are scared of how physical Alli is around the hoop. She moves people with ease, fights for position, and is a very effective rebounder. She draws a ton of fouls and gets to the free-throw line often. She is a good free-throw shooter, shooting 70% from the line last season. Reiner was selected as an All-WDA player last season and will be a future All-State selection as well. She is a prospect that has a high ceiling due to her physical abilities. I am eager to see how her Spring and Summer AAU season goes.

Mandan will have a great chance at being a top four team in the WDA and Reiner will be a big part of their postseason run. She played 233 minutes as an 8th grader and I predict she will play 400 plus this season as a freshman. The Braves will be a nice-sized team and will be tough to score on near the rim. Alli does a great job of plugging up driving lanes and defending physical girls. She pursues rebounds with conviction and is great at getting to the free-throw line.

Mandan has an embarrassment of riches at the forward/post position. Alli is going to have a great high school career and will have an opportunity to be a big-time recruit. She is incredibly physical and super strong. She was one of the strongest athletes I saw the entire day. She runs the floor hard and can finish through contact. Look for Alli to find herself an All-WDA selection for multiple years of her high school career.

I really like the way Alli plays.  She is tough bulldog down low and is very physical.  She fights for positioning and uses her strength extremely effectively.  She played at key moments this season for Mandan as only an 8^th grader and I predict she finds herself in a starting role next season.  She will be a great double post option with fellow big AnnaClaire Bugbee AnnaClaire Bugbee 6'2" | C/PF Mandan | 2028 State ND .

Alli has some big time potential as an athlete and is in a great spot at Mandan . She is having to practice daily against a Division 1 teammate and also against a 6’2 teammate with college potential. I am hopeful Alli is embracing this opportunity to get better and embrace her role in helping her teammates improve. Her time to shine on the court is coming and it is coming soon. Alli looks like she still may grow another inch or two and that would put her in a great position for colleges to recruit her. She has a nice touch and looks to be committed to getting better each season.

Alli is a talented 8th grader who has a lot of promise as a player. She would start on most teams in the state, but she just happens to have two tremendous post teammates in McKenna Johnson McKenna Johnson 6'2" | PF Mandan | 2025 State ND and 9th grader Anna Bugbee. She runs the floor well and did a nice job of rebounding the basketball. She got to the free throw line a handful of times and did a good job of knocking down those free shots when Mandan was struggling to find scoring opportunities.
