Jaida Gomez (Pflugerville) 5’6 CG
Gomez is a fiery competitor who’s arguably the best 3 pt shooter in Central Texas. She mixes it up well enough to be a combo guard but she’s also eager to showcase her lead point guard skill set. Even more importantly, she’s working hard to get to that next level.
Bailey Featherhouse (Round Rock) 5’8 CG
Featherhouse was the Central Texas “Freshman of the Year” and she brings a lot to the table, strong body, aggressiveness, good size combined confidence as well as scoring ability and pure joy for competition. Her greatest strength is no one will outwork her.
Macy Quiller (Hendrickson) 5’8 G
Quiller’s potential is scary and her talent-filled body jumps out at you at the first impression. She’s long and athletic, remember, that’s the base and she’s disruptive on the defensive end along with smooth and swaggy slashes to the basket.
Emily Genovese (HOMESCHOOL) 5’9 W
Genovese has developed a consistent scoring game and she uniquely uses size for a solid all-around inside out game. Good upside on offense, she gets it and adjusts quickly but she also reacts the same way on the defensive end
Zimora McClure (Connally ) 5’6 G
McClure’s defense stood out immediately as she loves to get after it baseline to baseline, She has developed a consistent scoring game and mixes it up nicely as she uniquely uses her size and strength for a solid all-around inside out game.
Kesslyn Davis (LaGrange) 5’6 PG
Davis is a solid point guard with a good shooting range. Her heady ball-handling gets it to the right spots, good upside is an understatement as I watch her absorb everything on the court and just get after it but she can create her shot, while being defended, that’s huge
Marissa Brewer (Hendrickson) 5’5 G
Brewer is good in multiple areas. On ball, she’s a defensive gem, and she rebounds well for a guard because she understands positioning. I love players that “get it” because with her desire and persistence, she’s definitely in the mix
