Harrell was a player who shined this season in the Metro for MICDS and averaged 12.4 ppg, shot 43.5%, had 61 rebounds and dished out 42 assists, had 43 steals and blocked 6 shots. You can see the trend, Harrell is truly one of those player that can affect the game in every aspect, be it offensive or defensive, turnovers or playing tough defense, Harrell is for sure one of those Metro League plays that thrived in 2019-20.
The freshman starred as a first year player and finished the year among the top 10 leading scorers in the Metro at 11.1 ppg. Sullivan was able to find the net for 20 points vs. Smith-Cotton and in STL action notched 18 in a pair of contests vs. Eureka and Trinity. A player that thrived in just her first season, expect some big things in store for Sullivan.
This Wildcat sophomore scored a little over eight per game but really had some great outings and was a spark for her team this season, notching 17 points in just the second game vs. Fort Zumwalt South and 15 points in games vs. Visitation and Clayton. Also proved she was not afraid to mix it up down low and grabbed 12 boards vs. Holt and 7 vs. Visitation and Lafayette.
Another player that we really like a lot is 6-2 low post standout and another class of 22 teammate of Reilly Brophy above at Westminster, Vick brings the size and packs the punch down low that the Wildcats rely so heavily upon to get their offense running smoothly. Ended the season in style with he season high of 18 points coming in her last game of the year March 5 vs. Summit. Went 6-for-9 and had 12 points vs. powerhouse Kirkwood.
One of the most underrated 2021 players we feel in the STL Metro, Dilworth is a 5-9 guard that can really change the flow of a game and has some of the intangibles that coaches like to see. The junior Crusader guard was able to score 17 vs. Helias and 15 vs. Orchard Farm in her top two scoring outings.
