Stilwell helped her team go all the way to the state championship last year, and she may just be having her best season yet this year breaking multiple scoring records are East Burke this year. She does such a nice job getting to the rim showing off her handles to attack the open lanes or create the space herself. She’s a knockdown shooter from deep being able to score off the pass or the dribble. Her ability to attack the paint and draw defenders towards her is sure to open up the court for her teammates where she makes the best entry pass for them to score. She’s feisty on defense, too, stripping the ball away from her opponents to take the other direction.

She was tough on defense getting in the face of her opponents and blocking the passes. She pushed the ball up the court scoring in transition.

is a big reason why East Burke was in the state championship this season. Her ball handling is exceptional knowing how to use her handles and speed to get a play going. She has some nice change of direction moves to create her own space, and she can knock down a shot from anywhere off these moves. Her leadership also sets her apart as she is a player who will leave it all out on the court.

Braelyn Stilwell is a major reason East Burke was in the state championship game this season. Her IQ on the court is what really stands out as she is a point guard who knows how to make her own play, and she can certainly facilitate offensive sets to get the open look to her teammates. She will out hustle anyone getting after loose balls and exploding to the rim to score her own points. Her defense is fun to watch, too, as she doesn’t let anyone get by her.

Named first team all state in NC, as she led her HS team to state runner-up. She also surpassed the 1,000 point mark for her career. She’s a high scoring, high octane PG that makes them go! She’s had some huge scoring games this summer, and I’m looking forward to watching her playmaking skills up close.
