Expert Analysis

The 5’6 wing fits in nicely as a floor-spacer in a Bulldogs lineup full of skilled ball-handlers such as the dynamic Payton Starwalt Payton Starwalt 5'7" | PG West Albany | 2027 State OR , but Kurth has the skill and smoothness to be a primary creator on most other teams. Her tape shows a repeatable and mechanically sound catch-and-shoot motion, making her a reliable kick-out option. She’s mentally undeterred by misses and hustles back to defend fast breaks. She’s done what’s been asked of her as a team player so far, and as she enters her senior year, she may find herself with more opportunities to lead. West Albany is one of my sleeper picks to win the 5A title, and Kurth can unlock this team’s potential.
