Name | Height | Position | Class | High School |
Jermyra Christian | 5’6 | PG | 2023 | East Jessamine |
Macy Runner Macy Runner 5'6" | PG Nelson County | 2023 State KY | 5’7 | CG | 2023 | Nelson County |
Iesha Dean | 5’9 | G/F | 2023 | East Jessamine |
Shae Harris | 5’9 | SF | 2023 | Montgomery County |
Taylor Parks | 5’6 | PG | 2023 | Menifee County |
Kaia Gabbert | 5’9 | CG | 2023 | Bardstown |
Tyra Young | 5’9 | SF | 2023 | Scott County |
Maddie Zeek | 5’7 | SG | 2023 | Montgomery County |
Courtney Ahlers | 5’5 | PG | 2023 | Bardstown |
Lauren McNees | 5’6 | G | 2023 | Harrison County |
Player to Watch:
Macy Runner Macy Runner 5'6" | PG Nelson County | 2023 State KY . She’s already got offers from Western Kentucky and Murray State and Runner is only going to keep getting better. A pure scorer, it will be interesting to see how many players in the 2023 class can consistently guard Macy over the course of a full game. After being one of the better players in the 5th region last year, playing against her age group should be easier for the talented guard.
X Factor:
Tyra Young and Shae Harris. On a team loaded with guards, wings and small forwards, Young and Harris are both small forwards but someone is going to have to play the post for this group occasionally. Young and Harris are the most likely candidates to step up and provide some kind of low block scoring.
Potential Surprise:
Jemyra Christian. Coming off a Freshman season where she averaged over 15 points per game, Jemyra could be the next in line to pick up scholarship offers on this roster. She and East Jessamine teammate Iesha Dean are both solid college prospects and should make a really good back court along with Runner.
