One of the state’s best prospects out of the 2027 Class in Nebraska is off the board with the commitment of Mollie Probasco to D2 Nebraska-Kearney. Probasco would be considered a lengthy CG/SF. She has such smooth skill with her guard-like ability that it’s hard to label her as a SF. She moves to the perimeter a good amount within her team’s systems and I would expect the same to be happening at the next level as well. I don’t know how Coach Drew see’s her fit within his program but this is a really solid commitment out of an in-state prospect for Kearney. They had a couple of their previous players move into the transfer portal to try and move up after a successful Winter just a few months ago so there is a lot of room for opportunity in the near future here and I’m sure that’s something that really excites Probasco.

This group is loaded with some talent that will play at the next level one day so to shine above all definitely says something and that’s what Probasco does in some contests.

This is a major season for everyone out of the 2027 Class in my opinion.

Mollie Probasco Mollie Probasco 5'11" | CG/SG Elkhorn South | 2027 State NE of Elkhorn South was a stud last season for her first time on the Varsity floor and I’m hoping that she follows up this Winter with an even better year. Probasco stands out for her natural ability on both ends of the floor. She is a top rated prospect out of her 2027 Class because of her mixture of length, smarts, athleticism, natural instincts, and attitude. These are all boxes that collegiate recruiters have while looking at a future prospect and Probasco checks off all of those at a thorough rate. The Storm’s roster is one that is deep at multiple positions. Over the next few seasons, they should make a run during the Playoffs and potentially make a State appearance if every one plays to their full potential.

If Mollie Probasco Mollie Probasco 5'11" | CG/SG Elkhorn South | 2027 State NE can expand her play style from what she showed last Winter, then the state of Nebraska is in for a rude awakening.

She may have some better than average size but she can handle from inside the paint to the full court, she can score from all three offensive levels efficiently, and she doesn’t take plays off on defense. Probasco already has an offer or two to compete at the next level but that won’t satisfy her. If she locks in and stays motivated, who knows where she could end up taking things at the end of the day.

Mollie Probasco Mollie Probasco 5'11" | CG/SG Elkhorn South | 2027 State NE is going to return as Elkhorn South’s leader producer again this upcoming Winter season and I can’t wait to see what she puts together as a whole.
