Playing with such confidence, it has carried over from her time in school ball. She’s a kid who brings leadership to the table. High basketball IQ: she can finish in the paint off two or dial it up from deep, knocking down 3s. She’s a solid defender, able to neutralize opponents. Her game has grown over the past year, and she’s about to have her breakthrough in the upcoming live period.

She’s about to have a season this upcoming year. Selfless ball player who makes the right plays at the right time. She can score from multiple spots on the floor; however, it’s her play-making decisions that stand out that giving her club the advantage. She can pull the 3 ball, get to the rim, or drop dimes to team members. Defensively, she gets after it, causing turnovers, being solid. She’s a kid who plays with poise and doesn’t get rattled. Tough kid who is going to be a big-time contributor.

Laney is a dawg! She is not backing down from any fight. She does a great job with her handles and taking care of the ball. She also does a great job with the ball in her hands and getting her teammates in position to score. She limits turnovers, and does all of the little things that do not always show on a stat sheet. She will always pass up the good shot for the great shot! She does an excellent job controlling the tempo and staying poised. Check out her X account, “No Days Off” and it shows every time she steps on the floor!

Really like her game. Not very big, but seems to play bigger. Highly competitive and gets after it on both ends. Above average shot make both off the catch or off the dribble. Continues to improve as a playmaker off the bounce with nice vision and IQ. Does a great job defensively moving her feet and truly understand “man to man” concepts. Knows the game.

Copeland has had a great spring with Trotters Armes ’27. She’s shot it exceptionally well thus far in the summer, and should build on her role in the rotation that she carved out as a freshman last season. She can both be a high level “catch and shooter” shooter, or she’s one of the few players that can legit get her shot off the dribble. Has a chance to be a special HS scorer down the road.

is a big time competitor and fits in great with this team. I love her ability to impact the game on both end, as she a high level on the ball defender. She’s also a dynamic playmaker that can get into the paint, and make the right rim read. She finished with 7 points and 4 assists in their win #2 of the weekend of ATL Hoops.

gets it! She’s a high IQ kid that seems to make all of the right reads! She plays the point position incredibly well. She can also step out and knock down shots. She’s incredibly unselfish and a kid that every coach would love to have on their team! I loved watching her fight, determination, and grit on every possession. Her passion resonates on the court no matter what team she is playing with! This young athlete is one for everyone to keep their eyes on!
