Elle is coming off a strong AAU season where she picked up multiple offers and showcased her ability to impact winning at a high level. That momentum will carry into her role at Brownsburg, where she looks to guide the Bulldogs to another successful year. Last season, Elle averaged 12.7 points per game while leading the team in steals, proving her value on both ends of the court. Offensively, she does an excellent job creating space for her shot and is especially effective in transition, where her speed and decision-making make her hard to contain. Defensively, Elle is the Bulldogs’ best returning stopper, averaging nearly three steals per game and setting the tone with her on-ball pressure and anticipation. The FGCU commit was instrumental in Brownsburg’s 19–5 campaign last year, and with her two-way impact, she will once again be a key piece in the Bulldogs’ pursuit of a sectional championship.
I saw Elle on about 5-6 occasions throughout June & July, and at least twice, she torched the nets for anywhere from six to nine 3-pointers in each of those games. She is starting to come into her own, getting stronger, more fluid, and more explosive. She has ball skill, obvious touch from the perimeter, but she is handling pressure better and sitting down defensively much better. I think she is a Division-I prospect, but there is still some “wait-and-see” to her game. With the growth she’s shown just in the last calendar year, I think she could continue to rise through the 2026 rankings.
Elle’s growth as a player over the past 9-12 months has been tremendous, and occasionally she has flashes where you lose sight of her ceiling. Sunday evening, she caught fire, knocking down what seemed like eight or nine 3-pointers. She still needs strength, but she’s stronger attacking the basket, she’s finishing with reverses and at odd angles, plus she’s obviously shooting it more consistently from the perimeter. I really think by next Spring her college interest will be all over the place.
Elle is one of the most intriguing prospects in Indiana’s 2026 class, and I feel like she’s still somewhat under the radar. She is incredibly long, wiry, but fluid. As she finishes growing and gains strength, she should continue gaining explosiveness. She has a solid handle, an accurate jump-shot with some range, plus she uses her length to cause a lot of problems at the defensive end of the floor. Look for her to have a breakout 2024-2025 season for the Bulldogs.
