We will help you to find kids that fit your programs and can help your institution thrive and possibly win, which is essential to build programs at the college level.
#19: 2022, 6’5, C, St. Marys Stockton HS, Ashley Lewis Ashley Lewis 6'6" | C St. Marys Stockton | 2022 State CA – Ashley is that young big that everyone in the gym is pursuing to play with their program, she is agile, she runs the floor well and has decent hands catching the ball in the paint. If she seals you in the paint, you are done, she will finish over you and bump you out of the paint. She shoots the ball off the backboard which means someone has been working with her and she is a decent shot blocker. I believe she may get another inch or two and if she does, she is going to be a problem for most schools. Watch this girl on the circuit and she will be good.
#30: 2022, 6’3, C, Junipero Serra HS, Ava Carter Ava Carter 6'3" | C Junipera Serra HS | 2022 State CA – Ava surprised us with her play when we first saw her, we did not know who she was and we believed she was a senior because she was so mature looking. We watched her make shots, block shots and also run and up down the floor well for her size, it only added value to her stock to find out she was young. We believe she will be a major player in the Trinity League next year and beyond, a true find for a young developing center.
#51: 2022, 5’11, C, Monte Vista HS, Alexis Woodson Alexis Woodson 5'10" | CG American Canyon HS | 2022 State CA – Alexis is unique in her own way, she has a nice midrange game from the freethrow line, we saw her knock those down. She is able to beat her opponent to the basket with her skill at this position and she is still improving on her ball skills, which will allow her to develop into a special stretch four at the next level. If she realizes the mismatches she creates on the floor, she will be really valuable to her team going forward. Major upside for this kid.
#57: 2022, 6’2, C, Mission Hills HS, Amber Schmidt Amber Schmidt 6'2" | SF Mission Hills HS | 2022 State CA – Amber is a wing forward/post with a nice jumpshot from the three line, she hit about 4 threes in the time we watched her play, which was very surprising to us. Amber is also physical in the paint and rebounded the ball well for her team. She ran the floor like a gazelle and was able to finish at the rim with either hand. She is quite the athlete to be this young.
#64: 2022, 6’0, C, Stockdale HS, Khari Grimes Khari Grimes 6'0" | C Stockdale HS | 2022 State CA – Khari was a big body post presence that had a good skill set in the paint, she could finish with either hand down low. Her best attribute to the game was her defensive game, willing shot blocker and rebounder in the paint. She got up and down the floor well and was a willing screen setter from what we saw from her on the floor. Nice footwork in the paint and could pick and roll with the guards.
