Key Players to Watch
Carly Prows, 6-1 2023 Ursuline Academy
Stretch 4 but can defend multiple positions, shoot the 3 ball very well. Has a high motor allowing her to rebound and has a knack for the ball and plays hard all the time. She is a leftie who plays basketball with her right hand.
Zyaira Miller, 5-7 2023 Walnut Hills
A 2-guard who is skilled enough to play the point if needed. She is very much a slasher and is working to improve her 3-point range and has come a long way. She will defend everyone. Used to play post when she was younger and is now playing her true position and has no problem posting up anyone.
Blessing King Blessing King 5'11" | PF Worthington Christian | 2022 State OH , 6-1 2022, Worthington Christian
Blessing is one of the longest, athletic players you will see this summer. She can jump out of the gym and can get a double-double without shooting a jumpshot with her ability to control the paint. Can push the ball up the floor and break the press by herself, guard every position without any issue. She has very good court awareness and good passer.
LaSonja Fairbanks, 5-8 2023 Princeton
Solid point guard who is a silent leader. Can take her defender off the dribble and always looking for the best shot for her team. Great court awareness and if you back off of her, she will hurt you with the three. Doesn’t show a lot of emotion, but is very intelligent about the game of basketball.
Kyla Oldacre Kyla Oldacre 6'5" | C Mason | 2022 State #42 Nation OH , 6-6 2022 Mason
Already an unstoppable force in the paint, what she wants to do this summer is continue to work on getting ready for the next level. Uses her height to a big advantage in high school, but in the summer it is about preparation for the college game. Good hands and footwork in the paint. Looking to improve her jumpshot.
