Betteridge didn’t have a huge scoring day, but she stayed engaged, fought hard on defense, dove for loose balls, made aggressive passes, and took smart shots. I have had the chance to meet and learn about her through this event, and I believe she’s someone to watch closely in the Oregon area. She has always quietly done her job at Forest Grove as a shooter, facilitator, defender and great teammate. Now a senior, she is getting more vocal and is highly motivated to play at the next level. She played like it here at the Expo, and she did the little things that coaches want to see. Any team she plays for is getting a well-rounded, team-oriented guard that won’t shy away from pressure or physicality. If you don’t believe me, take it from her high school coach.

Rylie Betteridge Rylie Betteridge 5'5" | PG/SG Forest Grove | 2027 OR is a strong guard with really impressive shooting mechanics. She shoots extremely well from beyond the arc and consistently gets excellent arch on the ball, giving her shot a high percentage of going in. Her mechanics are fundamentally sound, and that consistency shows up when she gets an open look. Rylie has clearly put the work into developing her shot, and she has the confidence to step into her opportunities and make defenses pay.

Defensively, Rylie brings the same work ethic and competitive approach. She hustles, stays engaged and works hard on every possession. But give her an opening on the offensive end, and she can quickly make you pay from the outside. When Rylie gets an open shot, she has the shooting mechanics and consistency to knock it down. Her combination of reliable perimeter shooting, strong fundamentals and defensive effort makes her a player who can provide value on both ends of the floor.

Rylie’s ability to consistently shoot the ball with proper mechanics gives her a strong foundation, and as she continues to develop the rest of her game, her shooting will remain an important weapon.
