Expert Analysis

Tony Ragulen

Prep Girls Hoops Scout

Stark was one of few players who felt comfortable enough throughout the showcase on Sunday to communicate loudly and clearly on a consistent basis. Along with talking on both sides of the ball, Hope had no problem giving her body up on defense for the greater good. Those are great attributes to have. Now toss in her elite shooting ability and you have a real problem on your hands. Led by South Dakota State commit Hadley Thul Hadley Thul 6'2" | SG Alexandria Area | 2025 State MN , Alexandria has a well-stocked lineup and made a deep state tournament run where they finished third in Class AAA last season. It’s tough to predict where Stark will fit in coach Wendy Kohler’s plans this time around. What we do know after watching Hope work on Sunday is this: When she’s called upon, Stark will be ready.

Grant McGinnis

Prep Girls Hoops Lead Scout

There were no superstars on Hope’s squad at the Freshman Showcase, just a lot of honest, hard-working athletes who competed together to demonstrate what they could do. And Hope can do a lot. She has a high basketball IQ, an understanding of the game that gives her the ability to anticipate what’s going to happen and put herself in the right spots to cash in. She is an excellent shooter off the catch who also showed the ability to attack the rim when the opportunity presented itself. We have always liked her quickness and intensity, both of which make her a factor defensively and lead to offensive opportunities for her team. She’s moving to West Central United next summer.
