The good and bad about being a skilled freshman at Westlake: the upside is that you’re surrounded by high-level teammates who elevate your game and sharpen your development every day. The downside is that with such a deep, veteran-heavy rotation, earning consistent varsity minutes becomes far more difficult. Lydia is long, disruptive, and already showing flashes of what she can be, but her opportunities may come primarily when Westlake builds enough of a cushion to open up the rotation. Even so, her tools and upside make her a freshman worth keeping an eye on as the season progresses.

Peterson is a lengthy, scrappy wing with a strong defensive presence. Her combination of length and potential suggests she’ll be a quick riser to the highest levels of play.

Westlake is getting a good one in Peterson because she does a little bit of everything and she has height. Peterson takes advantage of her size inside finishing in many ways. Westlake has been known to run the floor and Peterson is a player that has the motor to get up and down the floor. Peterson has a great IQ and it impressive that she can catch the ball and rip and go so quickly. Sprinkle in some shooting and Peterson is a player to really keep an eye on.
