Kate Wood Kate Wood 5'9" | SF Bigelow | 2025 State AR will be entering her first year with 2A-5 Bigelow High School, and after an all-conference junior season with 3A-5 Perryville High School, the expectations for Wood are even higher. Wood can play small forward, shooting guard, and point guard. Regardless of the position, Wood is a star.

Wood is a great ball handler. She has shown off her handles in the half-court and on the fastbreak, making defenders fly by her and forget where they are on the court. On her way to the bucket, it is hard for the defense to stop her. She is patient yet aggressive on her drives. She welcomes contact and can finish on both sides. She has also shown the ability to hit the floater on the move and even hit her teammates with quick passes thanks to her high IQ and great court vision. From the perimeter, Wood can light it up from three. From wherever she is on the court, she can knock down triples with a quick release.

On defense, Wood is a devastating shot blocker. She is very athletic and uses great timing on her blocks, especially when she is chasing down the ball. Her chase-down block ability is Lebronesc, and she sends the ball flying into tomorrow.
