Expert Analysis
Indianna DelRocco | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
An attacking guard who gets by their defender with ease. When Sollose gets going, NOBODY is stopping her. She utilizes her cross well by making the defender think she’s going one way, and then once she plants her foot, she explodes off of it to change direction and get to the rim. It’s a simple move, but she has mastered it to the point where it’s become dangerous. During her game against a tough New Heights team, she broke down her defender each time and got to the rim with multiple and 1’s. She played really well for her team, keeping them in the game with her scoring ability, but also her defensive efforts and playmaking ability. Sollose is very smooth on her drives, either looking to scoop, shoot over, or dish in the lane depending on her defender and the weak side help. She has range to deep and can hit off the kick out. On her drive, she has good vision when the weak side help shifts over, as she is capable and willing to dish to the open post or man for 3. Sollose is also a great defender who gets multiple steals just by picking off her player alone. She uses her angles well to cut them off, keeping active hands in the pocket and in the passing lanes. What I loved most about Sollose is how she rebounds on both ends of the floor, but most importantly how she can sometimes come out of nowhere for both the O and D boards. It’s pretty fun to watch how she just comes up with the ball even when starting from outside the arc. Overall, Sollose is a weapon on both sides of the ball, creating disruption with whoever is guarding her, or whoever she is guarding.
“Cat is a tremendous athlete – who is a nightmare for opposing teams. Her first step is elite, and has been a great addition to the Starters family. She has great upside and has been a fun player to coach.” -Brian Medeiros, CT Starters Coach
