Expert Analysis
Byron Xerxes Livsey | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
St. Charles East has found a high level guard who can keep up with anyone on the court, driven by the competitive fire and aggression she brings to every possession. She’s a true spacing threat, and with no hesitation or second thoughts when she shoots, she forces defenses to adjust. That gravity opens things up for her teammates, especially since she can also put the ball on the floor and make plays off the bounce.

Bainbridge has a motor that didn’t quit against a super fast and talented Mother McCauley team. She was always on one gear-hustle! Not only was she a help on the offensive end contributing to the score, she showed her determination by pulling down a bunch of rebounds. Her work on the boards stood out.

Crafty around the rim, but relies on a simple handle and speed to get there. Bainbridge will be part of a high school team full of talented young players, and what she brings will be utilized immediately. She’s a true offensive threat, and her confidence is quiet but definitely there. It wouldn’t be surprising to see a long list of individual accolades stack up for her.

Saint Charles East talent is heavy with their underclassmen, and Kathlyn is towards the front of that. This year she’ll be utilized in a lot of roles, I’m expecting, but her scoring will be needed out of her immediately. She’s already shown last year that she could be a key facilitator for this team, and I’m sure that part of her game has increased this summer. Big year ahead for her.

An underrated guard with a ton of skill with the ball in her hand. On the drive, she is someone that you don’t want to be in front of unless you can guard the shiftiness. A lot of her talent lies on the offensive side, but she’s more than a scorer; she can fill the playmaker role and make things happen with the same amount of impact.

Bainbridge does most of her damage below the arc with her ability to facilitate and get to the rim, but when she starts hitting from the outside, it can be a long night for her matchup. Her release is quick, her feet are set, and there’s zero hesitation when she lets it fly.

I love how Bainbridge pushes the rock! She has eyes everywhere, finding the open teammate- passes are spot on! Great job setting up the offense! Defensively she is locked in- Kathlyn’s motor and light feet compliment her overall game! (Featured Photo)

Bainbridge has been a bright spot for her team, and though she can light it up beyond the arc, I think her ability to cause disruption on the defensive end will be her calling card to coaches. She is consistently in the right spot at the right time, and knows how to capitalize on those turnovers. Strong summer ahead.
