Lauren should be an instant impact freshman for Harris County who had an impressive 23-6 record a year ago. Two of their leading scorers graduated, but the core of the young team returns. Lauren may not replacee the 25 points per game lost scoring the basketball, but if you combine her points and assists I think she would come close. She is very elusive with the basketball and has the ability to score from all three levels. Her biggest strength may be facilitating the offense now and she will do plenty of that at the point guard position, but she will need to score as well for Harris County to advance deeper in the tournament. Clayton State did not wait and offered after an impressive showing at their team camp in June.

Ellison is the quiet storm. Her ability to take over a game is what stood out. When her team needed a basket, she rose to the occasion. A player that can score at all 3 levels but also defend. Her length and active hands helped to create turnovers which led to easy baskets. A player not afraid to battle inside and out. Look for her to have a breakout July.

Ellison has the ability to play all 5 positions on both offense and defense. Her length allows her to get deflections which lead to turnovers. Great rebounder on both ends of the floor. A player not afraid to score or defend. If left open, she can knock down the 3 consistently.
