Lauryn is a compact guard with an athletic build, hustle, and determination that stands out on the court. She competes with non-stop energy and effort, making her a difficult player to keep off the boards. Lauryn’s determination led to multiple rebounds on the offensive end. I made a note of her strength and physicality. Lauryn’s quick feet and ball-pressure on the perimeter made a great impression on the defensive end. She can create space with her crossover dribbles in the lane and drives hard to the basket. Lauryn will be a good addition to the Southfield A & T program, and she demonstrated great potential at the PGH Michigan Freshman Showcase.

Christen lifted the Warriors to an epic 70-68 overtime victory against Berkley during an OAA Blue Divisional battle last week. She shouldered the load scoring 35 points with 15 rebounds and 4 steals. Christen is averaging 23 points and 7 rebounds for the Warriors in the last four games. She is a bright, aggressive, and strong multidimensional prospect who will be an excellent addition to a college program after this season.

Christen was one of the most exciting Michigan prospects on the PGH Circuit and has had a fantastic career at Southfield A & T. Christen uses her athleticism, strength, and determination to muscle her way through defenders for rebounds and contested finishes in the paint. She has an effective mid-range jumper off the dribble, and good footwork as a face-up driver or back to the basket post. Christen’s versatility as a ball-handling guard or interior forward makes her a huge asset for the Warriors. She elevates for defensive rebounds and has the acceleration to outrace everyone for transition layups. Christen explodes using crossover dribbles to power her way to the rim and blocks shots on the defensive end. Her hard work on the court and in the classroom (4.61 GPA) is impressive. Christen will be an excellent addition to a college program and I’m excited to see another All-League level performance from her as a senior.
