Within these recaps I will be listing out the roster that played together the most throughout the season. If a player switched teams midseason I will place them on the roster I felt like they were on the most. Over the next month I will be pushing these articles out once a day until I run out of teams. These stories will be in alphabetical order by program so All Iowa Attack is up first, followed by Beyond Ball, and so on. Up next in the series is the All Iowa Attack Nike Mauro team.

Ending Thoughts
Emma Bulman — Bulman has had a really nice summer and really improved on multiple facets in her game. She is a player who I think will see a nice rise in the updated rankings this fall. She has shown that she is comfortable playing on the inside and around the perimeter. As she continue to become more consistent with her perimeter shooting, I think she’ll see a nice little uptick in interest.
Elise Boulton —Boulton is one of the best shooters in the state and while she is a small guard you cannot leave her open. She’s a smart player with a really nice feel for the game and isn’t afraid to take the ball into the paint and try to score. Good defender for her size and she has the ability to cause havoc on the defensive end with her quick hands.
Peyton Kelderman — Kelderman has shown this summer that she is not afraid of the spotlight. She’s a very good ball handler with the ability to thread the needle with her passes. She is calm under pressure with the ball and has the ability to really create a dynamic offense for her team. Kelderman also adds a nice scoring touch with the ball and can be counted on in many situations.
Lindsey Kelderman — Like her sister, Kelderman is an overlooked player in Iowa. She can play the lead guard role well but she can also play off the ball with ease. There were games this summer where it felt like Kelderman couldn’t miss a shot. Her jumper and floater in the lane are both very critical pieces to her game. She’s a solid defender as well creating turnovers and turning those into points often.
Julia Reis —Reis has gotten better each time that I have seen her this year. She’s an athletic and versatile player who can play almost any spot on the floor. Reis proved this summer that she can score the ball when needed as she was able to get to the rim and score time after time. She has a solid frame and can really carve out space in the post when she plays down there. Reis should be looking at a good high school season coming off of a stellar AAU season.
Hannah Neemann — Neemann is a really intriguing prospect because of the combination of skill and athleticism she has. Neemann has proved that she can score at the basket but she is starting to move herself away from the basket more. She has the ability to score from the outside and this summer it seemed as if she was becoming more confident in that ability. She’s a very solid piece that brings both scoring and defense to the team.
Sydney Mitvalsky — Mitvalsky is such a joy to watch. She hasn’t met a shot she doesn’t like, and that’s a good thing. Over and over this summer I saw her look to score the ball aggressively and she was very successful in doing so. She’s a quick guard who does get her teammates involved well when the ball is in her hands. Probably more of an off-ball guard with her shooting ability but I imagine the interest will become heavy for her next year.
Avery Fried — While Fried did tear her ACL/MCL in April and missed most of the AAU season, I had to put her in here. She was having a very nice start to the spring prior to the injury and was showing improvement in key areas of her game. She’s a thin wing who was shooting the ball really well early in the summer. Fried is looking to be back by the start of the season and seems to be on a path to do so.
