Reece turned in an All-Conference First Team junior campaign for Thornapple Kellogg, averaging double-digit points and rebounds per game. She’s long, athletic, powerful in the paint, and can knock down perimeter shots. Reece has the strength and footwork to win one-on-one in the post with her back to the basket. She can face up and attack downhill from the perimeter, then finish through contact. Reece competes with a high motor and will be a versatile forward to watch with MBA UA Rise this spring. She holds offers from Aquinas and Spring Arbor.

Reece was one of the best forward prospects at the PGH Michigan State Tournament, and she stole the show again at our PGH Expo in September. Reece earned an All-Expo First Team selection, impressing with her athleticism, relentless hustle, dominant rebounding, defensive impact, and strong putbacks. Reece has the range to knockdown three-pointers, switches hands off the dribble, and uses an extra gear to drive by for layups. She picked up an offer from Aquinas in October and Spring Arbor in November. Reece is a double-double machine for Thornapple Kellogg and a high ceiling prospect in this class.

Reece is poised for a big season at Thornapple Kellogg as a rising junior after earning First Team All-Conference honors as a sophomore. She combines length, athleticism, and high energy on both ends of the floor, consistently pushing the pace and creating scoring opportunities. Reece can stretch defenses with her three-point shooting, attack the rim with confidence, and clean the glass with determined put-backs. Her relentless effort and defensive intensity make her a force her team can rely on all season.

Reece came to the PGH Michigan Expo and made a huge statement about her value as a college prospect. Her length, athleticism, positive communication, relentless effort, aggressive drives, efficiency from the free-throw line, defensive effort, and determined rebounding separated her at the showcase. Reece poured in multiple three-pointers, finished tough layups off the dribble, and was a put-back machine in the paint. She earned recognition as a Top Performer and has been selected to the All-Showcase First Team.

Reece has length, athleticism, and hustle that immediately grab your attention. Her positive communication, joy, athleticism, strength, and performance made her a Top Performer on the court. Reece contributed in every statistical category for Team 3. She showed her outside range by knocking down a pair of triples and was a rebounding machine. Reece scored put-backs and drove with a full head of steam down the lane to earn many trips to the free-throw line. She was perfect 5 for 5 from the charity stripe in game one. Reece caused misses with excellent wall-up technique and created steals. She pushed the ball with both hands in transition and split defenders with an explosive burst to score contested layups. Reece battled three players to secure an offensive rebound in the paint and kicked the ball to an open teammate. Reece was a breakout performer who stepped up in the spotlight.

Reece was one of the biggest stories of day one at the PGH Michigan State Tournament–she was my Saturday 16U player of the day. Reece competed with a relentless toughness, effort, and determination on both ends that set her apart. She scored powerful offensive rebound put backs, sealed off her defender with a low, wide, immovable stance to catch an entry pass inside, then finished at the rim. Reece converted contested layups off two feet and won her 1 on 1 battles. She made great backdoor cuts off the ball, kicked the ball out to shooters after securing offensive rebounds, and drove “angry” downhill to score a full-speed layup with her left hand. I described her as a “strong rebounder” in my notes and she also protected the rim as a shot blocker. Reece has athleticism, effort, and versatility that make her an exciting prospect to watch on the MBA UA Rise 2027 team.

Reece had a memorable sophomore campaign at Thornapple Kellogg, earning All-Conference First Team honors. She had a dominant 18-point performance with 22 rebounds vs. Plainwell and had another huge game vs. St. Johns with 17 points and 16 rebounds. Reece anticipates passes in help position on defense, using her length to cause deflections and create steals. She can contort her body to block shots without fouling on defense and beat forwards driving to the basket. Reece finishes well with both hands and is a prospect I’m excited to see more of this spring with MBA 2027 UA Rise.
