#23 (Up from #28)
Peiffer established herself as one of the state’s top shooters a couple of seasons ago showing she could the ball in the basket from mid to long-range as well as off the dribble. Her signing with Cal-Poly will give her a chance to continue to showcase her shooting and when you factor in her getting stronger in attacking and finishing after contact, it will be all good

Peiffer is committed to play at Caly Pol. Peiffer’s numbers don’t lie. She is a shooter, that can put us serious numbers. PGH Evaluator Simmie Colson describes her as a “zonebuster” and much more here.

Her initials also stand for “Keep Poppin” and watching her turn into one of the club season “top shooters” I have seen personally has been a treat. Yeah, she’s knocking the long ball down at nearly 40% yet her MIDRANGE as well as “stop and pop” in transition has been special

Peiffer also goes by her nickname ” KP” which is also an acronym for “keep popping” as she has been one of the most consistent shooters I have personally had my eyes on for the past 2 seasons. I enjoy watching her create her shot under pressure as well as dropping it while being defended but her ability to mix it up to score off the dribble gives her options and keeps the defenders on their toes which was happening over the weekend

Nice float game. Hits the 3. High level scorer. Constantly looking to put pressure on the defense without ever forcing the issue.

Peiffer’s initials are KP and it fits because she “KEEPS POPPIN” the jumper from mid to long-range and in my opinion, has turned into one of the best shooters in Texas. When she gets into a zone, you can almost forget about yet when you run a zone, she can be a ZONEBUSTER but she also scores off the dribble and her court vision is good both in the set and in transition. I also have to commend her for her baseline to baseline pressure as the offers are coming in as I type

Peiffer transferred to another school and immediately sent messages subliminally, telepathically, even Western Union yet the ones I received via text told me she was on her way to a big club season. Sometimes it appeared as if she was playing around the world dropping deep outside shots from everywhere, but her midrange was also consistent, as well as her scoring off the dribble. Factor in her seeing the floor and defending …

Peiffer has been on a scoring rampage for most of the season after transferring to a new school. I saw her for the first time a few years ago yet watching her at an Individual Showcase gave me an even better look at her ability to score. She thinks the game, understands how to set the defender up to not only get her shot off while being tightly defended but to drop it with a hand in her face, from mid to long range. Her deceptive first step gets the defender off balance for her to score off the dribble, attacking with either hand, plus her court vision is solid
