Blankenship isn’t your average high school freshman. No where close. In truth, she enters the West Virginia prep level after a year of varsity experience at Boyd County High School in Kentucky. She made the starting lineup as an eighth grader for BC. She’s 60 games into her prep career and it shows. She thrives in an aggressive defensive system thanks to her fast feet. Her great anticipation on the defensive end gives her a chance to punish any lazy pass. She moves without the ball and that gets her a lot of open shots, even as an 8th grade. Her range extends to the three-point line, though she wasn’t asked to do a lot of scoring one season ago. I can see this young lady assuming a 2 spot over the course of the next four years for Miller. Blankenship is in the No. 5 spot because I was able to see more of her scoring ability from the games I could watch over her sister. However, Chandler has a great chance to catch her sister.
