Expert Analysis
Evan Bell | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Ella is known for her sharpshooting and she poured in timely triples for Goodrich during their Regional Finals win. Ella buried confident 3s from different spots including a straightaway triple to give the Martians a 56-54 lead with 1:39 left in the fourth quarter. Her quick release, balance, and sound mechanics make her an efficient marksman. Her ball handling and poise under pressure is an asset for the Martians and Ella would be an excellent addition to a college program. She poured in 14 points during their victory on Wednesday.

Ella had an outstanding summer with Goodrich, proving her next-level abilities as a driver, shooter, passer, and leader on the court for the Martians. She will be climbing our rankings on the next update and is a prospect college coaches would greatly benefit from watching at The Expo.

Ella was dialed in from deep for Goodrich at Northwood Team Camp and produced points for the Martians all day. She drilled many 3s from the wings and corners, finishing many layups off two inside. Ella did a great job of mixing up her game by attacking off the dribble. One of her best drives happened when she caught a pass in the corner, paused briefly to freeze her defender, then drove baseline to score off two at the rim.

Place sort of had a coming out party in the state playoffs. People, including myself, got a really good look at just how talented she is and how much upside she has. Place came up huge in the playoffs when her team needed her, showing she could score big baskets in huge moments. She’s definitely a player to keep an eye on with with the MI Mystics 2025 S40 Finest.

The younger place had a wonderful game for an underclassman. The Martians struggled to score all day, but she hit timely shots and was a calming presence on offense. She is a menace off the bounce and has legit three point range. She does her job on defense. This kid is someone to watch going forward.
