Sophia had a strong showing at Wade’s World Showcase, proving to be a key piece for her team throughout the day. During the 3v3 finals, she caught fire from behind the arc, knocking down big shots that helped lead her squad to the championship. On the defensive end, she showed great discipline and awareness, walling up effectively and forcing turnovers with her positioning and effort. Her poise, shooting touch, and defensive instincts made her one of the more impactful players on the floor.

Sophia drove aggressively to the basket and finished effectively with both hands. She scored through contact and shot the ball confidently from beyond the arc. Sophia communicates with teammates and makes a difference on the defensive end. Her toughness, length, and multidimensional skills make her effective inside or on the perimeter. Sophia was a Top Performer at the PGH Michigan Expo; she has been selected to the All-Showcase Third Team and the All-Defensive Team.

Sophia came out confident during 3v3. She attacked hard with her dribble to score layups, including a strong and-one finish with her left hand. Sophia continued to make an impact during games for Team 5. She buried a step-back three, made a great block, was effective in the pick-and-roll, and disrupted passing lanes. Sophia was an active communicator, crashed hard to secure rebounds, and caused a jump ball. She earned recognition as a Top Performer at the PGH Expo.

Sophia has length, quickness, and versatility that stand out on the court. She’s continued to demonstrate progress on the offensive end. Her development as a perimeter threat really showed during travel and team camps during the summer. Sophia contributes in every category, gets to the rim, makes a difference on defense, and comes through when the pressure is on. I expect her recruiting to take off soon, and she’s a prospect college coaches need to have eyes on at The Expo.
