In all my scouting of Glenbard West, Ellie has been a fun watch. This is a player that blends strength and skill together and it’s helped the Hilltoppers succeed this season. I’ve seen her used in high and low post split actions as the hub and decision maker and for the most part, cashing in on her decisions. She can be a screener and add indecision to the defense because she can roll to the rim, pop, and play out of the short roll, being an advantage maintainer as I like to call it. Ellie can also play with her back to the basket using her strength and touch to score the ball. The 6’0 forward not only has the strength, as I said above, but she also brings a nice wingspan to that end as well. There have been a good amount of examples of using that wingspan while staying vertical at the rim when covering for teammates.
