Cornute, who has already hit the 1000 point club earlier this year, is so explosive and creates so many opportunities at the rim. She finds ways to sneak through multiple players and either dishes or scores. I like her composure- she’s a true leader with outstanding fundamentals.

Cornute from downtown! She sneaks her way inside for rebounds! Terrific job changing directions when it comes to finishing her shot around the basket, keeping from getting blocked. I’m watching her out rebounding players with 7-8 inches on her. She has heart. Money from the charity stripe! She’s going to do great things at the collegiate level!

Meliana is an outstanding perimeter shooter, excellent catch and shoot player and gets the shot off quickly. Knocks them down outside the arc from anywhere. Scrappy defender, excellent hands with good quickness and wins the 50-50 balls. She sits at #31 in the latest ranking! (Featured photo above)

Cornute’s defensive game is very challenging for opponents! Sticks to her girl defensively, creates 10 second violations- absolute pest! Love her hustle, creates fouls and automatic from the line. (Below with ball)

This young lady is so athletic and agile when she gets to the rim. Plays downhill well and can battle through contact to finish her shot. Smooth footwork and has a soft touch around the paint. Has good court vision which makes her effective in the offense to score or find a better shot. Smart heady player. She makes the move up to #32.
