Bousquet needs no introduction. She’s a player that’s known statewide and has been one of the more intriguing forward talents in the entire region for some time. The reigning Gatorade Player of the Year is looking to go out with a bang this season.

Bousquet is one of the most polished and versatile scorers in Rhode Island. At 5’11, she combines power and finesse, using her frame to finish around the rim while also knocking down shots from mid range. She’s confident with the ball in her hands and thrives in isolation situations where she can create her own look. Bousquet also understands spacing and moves well without the ball, finding soft spots in the defense for easy buckets. Her ability to score in transition is another layer to her offensive tools. Defensively, she holds her own inside, often guarding multiple positions. Her leadership and consistency make her the go to player for Moses Brown late in games. Expect her to be one of the top scoring threats in the state all season long.

What a special player Lauren is. She’s been on a historic career run and is looking to put a cherry on top of it all with another ring. Bousquet is one of RI’s finest prospects to have come around in a long time. Her game is well crafted and that impressive interior scoring can’t be replicated. Lauren has been getting some recruiting recognition too lately. All the positive momentum will mark her as a must-see player as the season begins. There’s just not many that can do what she does.

What a coincidence; not too long-ago Lauren was featured in an article referring to underrated players. There was a question asking, “how could a Gatorade Player of the Year be missing offers at the moment?” Well, the other day, Bousquet had an offer extended from Quinnipiac. It’s worth noting that this is a school that would be a great home for a player like Lauren. She’s a multifunctional forward that can serve many roles.

Some would wonder, how is a Gatorade Player of the Year considered underrated? However, this is undoubtedly the case with Bousquet. Her comprehensive game covers a lot of ground and she does some special things on the floor that separate her from a lot of her peers. Lauren has one of the best midrange games along with the ability to be close-range scorer. She uses a ton of moves from the midrange down to the block to craft good takes at the rim. What’s even more impressive is that she shoots a high percentage when putting up these tough shots in the paint. It’s still puzzling how a player like her has the stats, attributes, plus the overall impact on the game and isn’t a buzzing name in terms of recruitment. Maybe the acclamations will come in due time for the multifaceted forward. She’s such an enthralling player.

Lauren is the 2025 Gatorade Player of the Year. The dominant play from her over her years has been fantastic, but especially this year, Bousquet seemed determined to take her game to another level. Lauren’s individual ascendance and well-rounded tools make her a tough matchup for many. Very skilled at the forward position, most players are either not quick enough to stay in front, too impatient covering her or just not strong enough to put a stop to her forceful play. She’s also a vigorous defender that makes plays on the ball with her versatility. Lauren led her squad to the state final this year and was extremely close to being a back-to-back champion.
