came away with a steal on her first defensive play setting up some points up the court for her team. She runs the floor well being ready for the pass in transition, and she knows how to make herself a wall sliding in the path of opponents driving to the basket. She was attacking the basket making the defense shift opening up the floor for her teammates.

Smooth shooter that has fit in nicely with a highly talented North Meck team. Does not get a ton of reps shooting the ball because of all of the talent around her but makes the most of her minutes and opportunities. Can shoot it well all over the court when she is thinking score, has her feet set and has a half second to get her shot off.

Silky smooth shooter from the perimeter. Spots up and is ready to fire away without hesitation. Solid ball handler and good passer that makes her a true combo guard. SaRuan also displays quickness in transition scoring easy buckets and on the defensive side of the ball she can keep her defender in front of her. She has recently moved to North Carolina and has done well fitting into an extremely talented North Meck team.

had some big defensive stops grabbing the steal and using her length to block shots. She had a nice shot from deep scoring three with ease as she found the opening around the perimeter. She makes nice adjustments while handling the ball to get the pass to her teammates.

plays with a quick first step, allowing her to handle the ball efficiently, get to the rim with speed, and finish with determination. This explosiveness also helps her get her shot off quickly off the dribble, thanks to her high, quick release, while also making her a defensive menace. SaRuan is currently averaging 17.6 PPG, ranking 14th in 4A in scoring, with a season-high 25-point game. She has a prime opportunity to make a name for herself and her team this postseason as they aim for a deep playoff run, with a strong chance of winning a district championship and building momentum from there.
