Rori Harmon Rori Harmon 5'7" | PG Cypress Creek | 2021 State #12 Nation TX (Cy Creek)
Current Rank #3
Harmon helped lead her team to the state tournament, something she also did as a freshman and with BCS offers galore, I think that just about says it all. No, it doesn’t, she can handle the ball, see the floor or just take over either by attacking or hitting the mid to long-range
Bria McClure Bria McClure 5'6" | PG Steele | 2021 State TX (Cibolo Steele)
Current Rank #12
McClure falls into that “size don’t matter” category because, she can flat out play and not only does she run her team to perfection, she is a vocal leader and her energy trickles down to her teammates as she is definitely the match that can light-up at the drop of a dimed, which she does with regularity as well as score from anywhere
Raven Adams Raven Adams 5'7" | PG Ridgepoint | 2021 State TX (Ridgepoint)
Current Rank #14
Adams helped lead her squad to their first-ever
Regional Semifinal and one of their best seasons to date but her ability to run a team were shown in the 5th grade so I knew what to expect. She threads the needle as good as anyone, she understands how to control temp and she can take over, off the dribble or with a pull-up jumper
Jermia Green Jermia Green 5'8" | PG Clear Springs | 2021 State TX (Clear Springs)
Current Rank #15
Green’s strength enables her to overpower defenders and her ability to pass “off the dribble” is second to none yet she also understands how to control the tempo and set her teammates up for open looks or easy lay-ups. Good ball handler that can score off the dribble or just letting it go from mid to long-range with her smooth jumper
Tymberlin Criswell Tymberlin Criswell 5'8" | CG The Village | 2021 State TX (The Village)
Current Rank #33
Criswell’s ability to go from a scoring guard to run the one that helped lead her team to a TAPPS State Championship sort of says it all. She’s athletic and can shoot the mid to long-range, as well as score off the dribble, but her curt vision, her steadiness at running the team and setting teammates up was definitely impressive
