Destiny Holmes Destiny Holmes 5'8" | PG Forest Park | 2022 State MD , 2022, Forest Park
Destiny did not have her best shooting day but she still turned in a strong performance. She stayed in attack mode on both ends of the floor all day. She pressed up on ball handlers and caused several turnovers with her physical play. She is a very confident player and she helped keep her younger teammates composed. She scored in double figures on the day with a mix of transition baskets and perimeter shots. She will be a contributor to a college program that needs a strong two way guard that can play both positions.
Aniya Campbell Aniya Campbell 5'7" | CG Western | 2024 State MD , 2024, Forest Park
Chaniya was her usual disruptive self on defense. She has excellent timing on her blocks and she goes after anything in the paint. At six feet she’s very strong on the boards and has improved her lateral movement and defense on the perimeter. Her offense is still a work in progress, but she’s showing more confidence handling the ball and stepping out for jumpers.
Milan Brown, 2025, Mercy
Milan is a very impressive freshman. A speedy guard with a versatile game that includes making difficult shots in traffic. Excellent athlete with a high IQ. I’m looking forward to watching her over the next few weeks.
Mary Amoateng, 2025, Pallotti
Another solid 2025 prospect. Slick lefty with a strong motor and good handle. She plays elite defense on the wing and her three point shot looks solid. She played the point most of the game and acquitted herself quite well.
Kiersten Rurka, 2026, Concordia
Kiersten dropped 18 points to lead her team in scoring. She is a quick, athletic guard that knows how to get buckets. Very nice touch on her floater and she has a strong mid range game. She knocked down a three and made some nice passes. Definitely one to keep an eye on in coming weeks.
Ah’Niyah Tillery, 2022, Coppin Academy
Super athletic wing that really flashes some spectacular plays at times. Good size at 5’9″ and she is really programmed to score. She has the ability to just raise up and shoot jumpers over defenders and a decent enough handle to get to the rim frequently. She has the tools the be an impact player on both ends of the court with a little more consistency.
