She is a strong and reliable three-point shooter, and can nail the mid-range jumper when teammates penetrate and kick out to her. Tessa has nice footwork, and moves well without the ball, finding the open lanes to cut and create easy buckets. Her length makes her tough to guard, and has the ability to block shots. Doesn’t take long for her to square up and shoot. She’s D1 material, and continues to get stronger and better every time she’s on the floor. (Featured Photo)
Abbie Riddle Abbie Riddle 5'10" | CG Liberty Union | 2023 State OH – 5’11, CG, Liberty Union: (seen below in blue) Riddle, who earned 3rd Team All-Ohio honors, really added to her game this season. She has an outstanding outside shot, and can shoot anywhere from behind the arc; however, Abbie has the size to score on defenses with ease, and can take it to the basket with such grace, with controlled spin moves. She makes great decisions with the basketball, sees the floor well, knows when to cut and find the open spots. Abbie just gets better and better each year!
Ella Wigal Ella Wigal 5'11" | SG IMG Academy | 2023 FL – 5’10, G, Granville: Wigal is one of the best guards in Ohio, and her overall play earned her 2nd Team All Ohio honors. She has smooth mechanics, with a beautiful outside shot, and quickness that allows her to breeze past opponents for easy buckets. Handles the ball well, doesn’t force the game to come to her-but rather, she’s able to create offense through her passing, finding seams, and patience. Ella is a play maker!
Lexi Howe Lexi Howe 5'9" | CG Dresden Tri Valley | 2023 State OH – 5’11, CG, Tri-Valley: Lexi, who earned 2nd Team All-Ohio honors, and averaged 15.4 ppg., had a stellar season! She is a dominate player who can make plays on both ends of the floor- all game long! Howe has excellent handles, and can beat her defender off the dribble- and how she finishes around the basket is just pretty to watch! She can change speeds, hit the 3’s, pull up jumpers, and has great vision and anticipation. Strong defender as well- she’s a big problem for opponents!
Ellie Brandewie– 6’3, C, Bishop Hartley: ( Below in blue) Brandewie is so impressive to watch, how she defends in the paint, leaving no other choice for opponents but to alter their shots when they come near her and the basket! This scoring and rebounding machine, averaged 12ppg, and earned Honorable Mention All-Ohio honors. She has outstanding footwork, creates strong moves on the block, and her hands are always ready to catch the ball. High basketball IQ, and a natural at the game!
