Norah has always displayed good skill, an understanding of the game, and the ability to make basketball plays out of nothing. This Spring, however, she is starting to play with a much greater urgency each possession, which should translate into her producing more consistently as well. She has a fairly strong, athletic frame, some length, and she is a nice North/South athlete. She could work on lateral quickness a little, especially defensively, but she makes up for it with a quiet toughness and competitiveness. She has helped Reitz’s rapid climb.

I’ve talked about Norah a few times previously, and I continue to enjoy her upside for some of the Midwest’s better small colleges. She has a fairly strong frame, the ability to get downhill, change directions, and score in the paint, plus she has some shiftiness around the perimeter and the ability to make rhythm jumpers. I would like to see her play a little more consistently against top competition, and I need to better evaluate her defending upper-tier guards, but she certainly has shown the physical ability and the offensive skill it takes to contribute somewhere at the next level.

Norah is a really nice basketball player, and she’s difficult to describe by position, because she contributes in a number of ways. Athletically, she has always been a little stronger than her peers, but she has nice length, plus she’s more so fluid than explosive. She uses her body well offensively to protect the ball, attack the basket, and she’s a willing rebounder. Additionally, she can initiate offense at times, plus she has good vision. Defensively, she isn’t afraid to get inside and mix it up.
