Sometimes you have to do what is best for you and switch some things up. Rease Murtaugh Rease Murtaugh 5'8" | PG Papillionla Vista | 2025 State NE of PLV High School knows about this first-hand. Earlier this week Murtaugh announced that she is flipping her commitment from D2 – William Jewell to D2 – Sioux Falls. With this change, Murtaugh will join up with a talented Class at the next level. A Class that is sure to make an impact in more ways than one. One of the most consistent and best producing recruits out of the 2025 Class this Winter was Murtaugh. I expect her play-style at the guard position to translate to the next level. She competes with a lot of heart and that is going to be prevalent when she steps on the collegiate floor.

Rease Murtaugh Rease Murtaugh 5'8" | PG Papillionla Vista | 2025 State NE averaged over 23 PPG this Winter for her PLV High School team, demonstrating that she is going to be someone that might see the floor right away at the next level.

Rease Murtaugh Rease Murtaugh 5'8" | PG Papillionla Vista | 2025 State NE has been someone that we have talked about for a few years now because of her ability to score at a high rate, while being a better than average defender. Murtaugh, a Jewel Women’s Basketball commit, has hit the ground running this winter for her Senior season. As of most recent, she recored a career high 36 point outburst in her efforts to help her team secure another W. (Which they did.) With the motor and mental game that Murtaugh has, I think she will see the floor early on in college. If she does and plays to her full abilities, it’ll be tough to pull her out of the game in most situations but only time will tell how that will play out. For now, I’m sure she will continue with this current momentum.

Rease Murtaugh Rease Murtaugh 5'8" | PG Papillionla Vista | 2025 State NE of PLV High School and the Nebraska Attack is going to have a chance to compete at the next level when her high school career finishes out but I’m not quite sure as to where just yet. Murtaugh is a quick acting, fast moving, and smart thinking Point Guard. She controls the tempo of the game with her ability to change her speeds in the blink of an eye and when you mix that with her skilled ability, you get a handful to deal with as a defender. Murtaugh is another player who will have a chance to show off what she can do, helping her future recruitment over this next month. If she does her thing, she should have a college coach or three reaching out to her about taking some visits this Fall, if thats ultimately the route she wants to go.
