Leah Barringer 2021– Charlotte Flames 17U
Good build and a super quick guard that can score on all three levels. She has a knack for scoring whether it is hitting three’s or attacking the rim. Defensively can recover with her quickness and rebounds well from the guard position. A player that had many of the coaches asking about her and it was no surprise she came out of the first live period with an offer. A player now on many coaches radar. 

Kennedy Simpson 2021- Carolinas Elite ASGR 16U
Long athletic player that can get up and down the court. A player that played all 5 positions, from point guard to the post. Now with an improved three point shot, she can truly stretch the defensive and seems to always be around the ball. Defensively she uses her length to her advantage and can switch and play multiple positions. Stock is on the rise! 

Victoria Jordan 2021- SC7ers White
A player that is going to compete. She is active on both ends, whether it is blocking shots, rebounding or diving for loose balls. Most of her scoring was done around the rim, but was able to step out occasionally with a solid mid-range game. Another player that came out of the event with an offer and will continue to draw more interest.

Taleah Stephens 2021- SC76ers Silver
Another player over 6’ who can stretch the floor and we mean stretch the floor. In one game she hit 6 or 7 three’s and many of them contested. As her ball handling skills continue to develop, she will be extremely tough to guard. Defensively she blocks shots and rebounds well. A player that added another offer coming out of the event.  

Evan Miller 2020- Carolinas Elite ASGR 17U
Often times she was the best player on the court. Offensively she can shot or drive and scores from all levels. A player with a high basketball IQ and who will give everything she has on both ends. Defensively is much improved as she rebounded well from the guard position and was able to guard multiple positions. A player that drew many coaches to the baseline. 

Amaia Parkins 2021- NC Spartans
Defensive shot blocking machine who contests every shot. She uses her length to her advantage and rebounds well with her slender frame. As she continues to grow offensively, she will be a player added to many watch lists. 

Samyha Suffren 2023- Carolina All-Stars 16U
One of the top players in NC regardless of class and one who will surely be ranked nationally. She displays poise beyond her years and can do it all, both defensively and offensively. With a solid frame, she can score from anywhere on the court but most impressive is how she runs the offensive and limits turnovers. Defensively she is quick and strong with great anticipation. Already with offers, expect many more to come.

Reagan Iovino 2023- Lady Attack Elite
A small guard that can light it up from beyond the arc. She has range, like in the gym range. Whether it is coming off a down screen or flare screen, she can get set and let it fly. She is very consistent, plays with a high basketball IQ and is scrappy. 

Shayana Portee 2021- NC Gems 2021
An undersized point guard with good handles. She continually attacked the rim and finished or made the right decision to pass to an open teammate. A smart PG who plays both ends. As her outside shot continues to evolve, she will be extremely tough to guard. A player just added to the watchlist.

Maleia Bracone 2020- Lady Team SC Black
It’s easy to see why she has multiple offers. A confident player that is hard to guard. She can attack off the dribble and has one of the best midrange games around. She can hit the three as well and is a team first type player. A player who loves to compete.
