An accurate three-point shooter with range. An already developed prospect with some upside to go with with her size and frame. Improvement in the ball-handling category is where I see her upside in skill development.
#9 Lucy Schonlau Lucy Schonlau 6'4" | C Omaha Westside | 2023 State NE – 6’4 C 2023 – Omaha Westside – Nebraska Attack UAA – Lucy, standing at 6’4 and coming in the top 10 overall is a significant addition to the rankings. Playing for one of the premier programs in Nebraska in the Nebraska Attack UAA team. She has also picked up a D1 offer from Evansville, per her Twitter account. As far as her game goes, she has a lot of positive traits and skills. Will run from rim-to-rim with effort and great speed for her size. Produced both offensively and defensively as a strong rebounder and rim protector for Omaha Westside, averaging nearly a double-double with 10.7 ppg. and 8.9 rpg. Was one of the leaders in the state as a shot-blocker with 3.6 per game! Lucy is a great prospect in the state and could climb up the rankings even higher — with her 6’4 frame, high effort, and ability to produce greatly on both ends.
#10 Sam Ehlers Sam Ehlers 6'0" | C Ponca | 2023 State NE – 6’0 C 2023 – Ponca – United Sports Academy 2023 – Sam is a hard-working and consistent post player that can also step out and shoot the ball with consistency. She’s a huge part in Ponca’s success as a team with scoring, defense, and rebounding. She averaged 9.6 ppg. and 6.3 rpg.
Mattie Milligan Mattie Milligan 5'7" | CG Ponca | 2023 State NE – 5’7 CG 2023 – Ponca – United Sports Academy 2023 – Mattie is one of the most underrated prospects in the state of Nebraska, in my opinion. Has a good handle on the ball, can withstand ball-pressure, and control an offense. Was a starter for United Sports Academy 2023.
Anna Briggs Anna Briggs 6'2" | PF Quinter | 2023 State KS – 6’2 PF 2023 – York – Anna is a 6’2 transfer from Quinter High School in Kansas. She brings a long and lanky frame to the York team. She was a high producer with a significant all-around stat line. Her line was 12.6 ppg., 11.0 rpg., and a highly impressive 5.0 blocks per game. Anna had a 20 rebound game and a ridiculous 10 blocks in a game for Quinter as a Sophomore. If her playing strength improves as she matures, she could become a sought after prospect and also be a high producer for York. She’ll be high on the radar for me to watch early in the high school season. A little conservative in her ranking until we see her up against the talent of Nebraska.
Bryn McNair Bryn McNair 6'0" | C Chase County | 2023 State NE – 6’0 C 2023 – Chase County – Bryn is long and lanky and runs with floor with great speed. Will crash the boards, looking to board the ball at her high point. Moves well and plays the top of her team’s press, sprinting from pass to pass. Bryn is an active prospect that moves well with consistency and competes for the ball and rebounds. Does a nice job of kicking it back out to shooters.
Nyawarga Jock Nyawarga Jock 5'7" | SG Lincoln High | 2023 State NE – 5’7 SG 2023 – Lincoln High – Nywarga is a super-springy athlete that moves on the court easily and fluid. It doesn’t take her much effort to play at a high speed and consistent pace.
Sloane Beck Sloane Beck 5'8" | SF Minden | 2023 State NE – 5’8 SF 2023 – Minden – Sloane has good athletic ability and speed — at a solid size. Her ability to get off the ground immediately stood out. Competes defensively, both on and off the ball. Takes pride in staying in front and giving pressure. Shows some solid ball skills and can push the ball up-court in a hurry.
Mary Chieng Mary Chieng 6'0" | C Lincoln Northeast | 2023 State NE – 6’0 C 2023 – Mary has good size and an athletic and strong build. Can play in the interior on offense and defend the interior and perimeter on the defensive side of the ball. Good awareness of ball and man on defense as well.
