With all respect to Ford and McKenzie, Garner’s freshman season for Kearney coach Drew Danielson may have been the most impressive in the state of Nebraska. She lead Kearney with a nearly 17 points per game average and we personally saw her in big games against Gothenburg and Omaha Marian take over in spots. She has the ability to be an elite defender as well and her quickness on both ends of the floor is evident. An excellent shooter as well who can knock down the long range shot (made 50 3s on the season); she was also a 73% free throw shooter. We think Division I offers will be in the cards for Garner.

Our second time in person with Garner was better than the first. An elite freshman, Garner’s game is already well polished as she is an elite shooter and can also take the ball to the rim off the bound as well as having a good floater when the trees are tall. She was the best player on the floor in this game and it wasn’t close as she scored 30 points on 7-for-18 shooting with four triples and made 12-of-13 free throws. Also added two steals and plays with great energy.

Hallie Garner Hallie Garner 5'6" | CG Kearney | 2029 State NE showed off why she is a Top 15 rated prospect in the 2029 Class throughout the state this evening. Garner hit big shots from deep off the catch, she made plays for others at high rates leading to all sorts of scoring opportunities, and she defend her own as well as she could. She demonstrated a sound dribble against pressure with some craftiness to her play-style on both ends whenever those opportunities presented themselves. If Garner continues to produce like she did tonight against other college level prospects at the Guard position, she will continue to move up our Ranking board come the start of AAU season.
