Katie is a wing-style forward who has really developed her jump shot during her high school career. Her southpaw style is difficult to defend with that quick release, and she’s become particularly good at moving without the ball to find space in order to get that shot off. Katie can also dribble and finish with both hands which makes her a prime candidate for the college game.

She is lethal from behind the arc and she not only knows her spots, but she picks them well too. She also plays with a lot of positive energy which rubs off on her teammates, and there’s no doubt she will continue to shine on the court in college.

If you’re looking for a true utility player and someone who can do it all then look no further. Larrin Sydnor Larrin Sydnor 5'10" | SF St. Vincient Pallotti | 2021 State MD is arguably the best defender on this list and her ability to get out in transition both ways is absolutely incredible. She’s also fast. Her quickness on offense allows her to make space to get her jump shot off easily but also drive and finish if necessary. She’s comfortable with the ball but doesn’t need it to be efficient as her movement away from the ball is some of the best in the high school game. Larrin is no doubt a DI prospect who will be a solid player anywhere at the next level.

Krislin has become a vital organ for the Bullis Bulldogs and Team Takeover during her tenures with each program, and she will no doubt do the same at the division one level.
