She is low to the ground, lighting quick, strong, skilled, and confident. She possesses some nasty and strong handles. Gets by the on-ball defender and becomes an attacker.
Claire Williams Claire Williams 5'5" | PG Omaha Central | 2022 State NE – 5’5 CG 2022 – Omaha Central – Team Factory – Claire can handle point guard duties as well as play an off-guard spot. She put in 4.4 ppg. and assisted well with 2.6 per game. Claire plays with high IQ and understanding, and you can see it in her play-style, composure, and decision-making.
Dominique Mack – 6’2 SF-PF 2024 – Omaha Central – Nebraska Hoops Elite – Dominique busted out onto the scene with her showing early this Spring at the Legacy Classic in Omaha. She showed length and a wide range of skills and a full skill-set. Immense upside.
Aaniya Webb Aaniya Webb 6'0" | SG Omaha Central | 2022 State NE – 6’0 SG 2022 – Omaha Central – Della 17U 3ssb – Aaniya is an ultra-long 6’0, pure shooting guard. She’s smooth, skilled, and will make you pay from deep. Has great range and can get her shot up whenever she’d like.
Aniah Wayne Aniah Wayne 5'9" | SF Omaha Central | 2022 State NE – 5’8 SF 2022 – Omaha Central – Nebraska Attack UAA – Northern Colorado commit – A strong, linebacker-type build at a wing spot. A key contributor this season, with a scoring average of 10.1 and 4.6 rpg. She was not shy from deep, shooting 120 and making 32 for 27%. Can go off the drive and get in the lane
Lilliana Petersen Lilliana Petersen 6'0" | C Omaha Central | 2024 State NE – 6’0 PF-C 2024 – Omaha Central – Nebraska Hoops Elite – Saw Lilliana at the Legacy Classic and she seemed to make positive plays when given playing time opportunity. Not an over-powering frame but Lilliana is a bruiser of a post player. A strong, physical rebounder that will put the ball right back up.
Ital Lopuyo Ital Lopuyo 6'5" | C Omaha Central | 2022 State NE – 6’5 C 2022 – Omaha Central – Texas A&M (Volleyball) commit – Very very tall and long. She dwarfs everyone on the court, but yet still seems to have good movement and control at such a size. If she weren’t playing college volleyball, she’d be on a college basketball roster at a high level, just from shear size and ability to coordinate. She was much more than size as she led the team and rebounding and had most likely the most efficient field goal percentage in the state. She appeared in 19 games, going 54-70 from the field for a whopping 77%! Pulled down 15 rebounds against Pius X in the final game.
Grace Schaefer Grace Schaefer 6'0" | SF Bellevue West | 2022 State NE – 6’0 Wing 2022 – Bellevue West – Just added to the database, Grace led the team in rebounding as a 6’0 wing, with 8.8 per contest. Not overly quick or athletic but plays with constant movement and consistent effort/energy.
Kenzie Melcher Kenzie Melcher 5'11" | SG Bellevue West | 2024 State NE – 5’8 SG 2024 – Bellevue West – Team Factory – Kenzie is physically strong and built for a 2024 prospect. She backs that up with some skill and three-point ability, making 32 total on the season at 36%.
Faith Elmore Faith Elmore 5'7" | SG Bellevue West | 2023 State NE – 5’7 G 2023 – Bellevue West – Team Factory – Faith showed tremendous upside and improvement at Prep Girls Hoops Live. Seems like she has a better handle on the ball and is able to fully utilize her athletic ability.
Dani Peterson Dani Peterson 5'10" | PF Bellevue West | 2022 State NE – 5’10 SF-PF 2022 – Bellevue West – Nebraska Attack – Dani has an unorthodox feel to her game but she is a producer on the court, with 11.3 ppg. and 6.9 rpg. Her 2pt field goal percentage is a staggering 62%. Has offers already and will most likely be one of those prospects that are undersold, then manage to have successful four-year college careers.
Taryn Wharton Taryn Wharton 5'6" | PG Bellevue West | 2022 State NE – 5’6 PG 2022 – Bellevue West – Northern Iowa commit – Taryn is an exciting guard to spectate. Her quickness, her non-existing let-up, and her fearlessness to fire from deep, make for a fun watch. She took and made a bunch of threes. She fired it up 182 times from deep and made 69 for 38%. Scored 405 total points on the season, carrying an 18.4 average.
