Ragland thrives as a facilitator, creating opportunities for teammates while also attacking gaps and finishing through contact. Defensively, she is disruptive with active hands, blocks shots, and forces turnovers that lead to transition offense.

I could simply say she averaged 20 and 10 and ask why she’s not signed. However, that would be a disservice to

and the full scope of her high school career.
Ragland brings Division I–level athleticism and versatility to the floor every night. In addition to the athleticism is the ability to defend and operate across positions 1 through 5. She offers rare positional flexibility paired with a fundamentally sound foundation that translates to any system.
A true two-way presence. Ragland impacts the game far beyond the stat sheet. Any program fortunate enough to secure her commitment would be adding a versatile competitor capable of elevating both ends of the floor.

Ragland impacts games with her ability to alter and challenge shots from the mid-range all the way to the rim. Combining defensive instincts with elite mobility, she uses the same explosive first step seen in her offensive game to cover ground quickly and protect the paint.
Her closing speed allows her to rotate effectively as a help defender, contesting shots and disrupting rhythm without sacrificing position.
Around the basket, Ragland’s quick hands become a weapon. She consistently strips ballhandlers who try to attack the rim, turning potential scoring opportunities into defensive stops and momentum shifts.
Ragland’s versatility makes her more than a rim protector. She’s a defensive disruptor capable of impacting every level of the floor.

As Ragland enters the final stretch of her senior season, most questions surrounding her game have already been answered. The only one that remains is simple: why has she not yet been signed? A walking double-double, Ragland uses every inch of her 6’2” frame, to dominate on both ends of the floor. Her post game is anchored by polished footwork. While possessing a reliable mid-range touch. The above mentioned skillet is complimented by textbook rebounding technique that allows her to control possessions.
Currently averaging 19 points and 10 rebounds per game for a 20-1 Grafton High School squad. Ragland has proven to be a consistent and impactful force capable of taking over a game. A standout performance against 6’9” Abuna Ruop further showcased her value. Holding Ruop to just six points while delivering 21 points and 12 rebounds of her own. The performance solidified Raglands reputation as a dominant post player. Whichever program signs Ragland will be signing a player with the ability to contribute the moment she steps on campus.

Makes her presence known on the court at 6’2″ leveraging her IQ and ability to move without the ball as her strength. Taylor can no doubt be the stretch four role at the next level with her ability to shoot and drive to the basket! Taylor consistently scores well in close quarters, leveraging her physicality and skill to finish effectively against defenders. She also excels hitting the boards consistently securing rebounds and scoring on put backs. Very good athleticism, good D-1 prospect in the right system probably can step in and contribute from day one!

On a team full of very skilled 2027s, Taylor is a 2026 who excels in her role. She uses her length and toughness to be a disruptive force on the back end of the YKS pressure defense. She blocks or alters shots when the opponent comes inside and she attacks the glass. Offensively, she knows her spots, gets to them and converts consistently when she receives the ball.

was a bright spot for Grafton against James Monroe. Taylor was excellent on the glass, and she had some tough finishes inside. Taylor has a great handle for her size, and she did a good job pushing the ball and making great passes. She was fantastic, even in a lopsided loss.

One of the impressive games of the year thus far has to go to Talyor! How about 41 points, 10 steals, 8 rebounds, and 6 assists! What a mind blowing statline for a player who is already one of the top 2026 prospects in the 2026 class!

A very underrated player that has good size that is very athletic. Plays the power forward but she does have wing traits. Taylor is able to score in many ways. She can use her quick first step to beat bigger defenders off the dribble and can hit the mid range over smaller defenders.She finishes around the rim with both hands and can score through contact at the rim. Good D 1 prospect that would benefit and get more exposure playing a high level in high school.
