Jaelynn plays the game like a true point guard, consistently putting her teammates in position to score while also creating offense for herself when needed. She has strong footwork around the basket, allowing her to finish against taller defenders, and once she gets a step on her primary defender, she does a great job using her body to keep them on her hip and protect the ball. Jaelynn has generated interest from Patriot League, NE10, America East, MAAC, and ECC programs, and after recently returning from a torn ACL, she’s working her way back to full strength.

Perez had a bigtime year this high school season as well as having a scorching hot start to AAU.

Perez was sensational looking over the weekend, The fresh reclass into ’27 has shown improvement in her driving attacks, showing much more deception on the move, seldomly telegraphing her next move. She’s throwing defenders off with her eyes as well as changing multiple heights to get the edge getting by those guarding her. There were some plays where she absolutely froze players in their tracks as she proceeded to advance the ball up the floor. This evident ascension in her game makes her much more of a prominent name in the class. The BCRI pg can carry a lot of the responsibility and is producing at an even higher rate.
