She has a command with the ball. Has a smooth jumper that she can shoot off the dribble, including a step-back three. She glides and moves well on the court. Plays with a confidence about her. Has a complete game, shooting the three, and getting deep in the lane. Horace has a good one in Keelie and it will be fun to see her game develop. You’ll be hearing her name for years to come.
Jaiden Haile Jaiden Haile 6'2" | C Horace | 2025 State ND – 6’1 C 2025 – Horace (ND) – Jaiden has great size and is an inside presence. Also, has the ability to roam around the mid-range to perimeter area. She can hit a mid-range jumper and occasionally a three. Moves well without the ball. Ran the floor well at the event, and it allowed her to get some transition buckets. Jaiden has a constant motor as a young prospect and has size, so there’s a lot of reasons to think she will be a legitimate prospect. Jaiden’s effort and motor really stood out and was noticeable.
Taaliyah Porter Taaliyah Porter 5'9" | SG Rapid City Stevens | 2025 State SD – 5’8 F 2025 – Rapid City Stevens (SD) – Taaliyah was quite impressive, competing with an older group. She rebounded and was a defensive playmaker. She could board it and advance the ball herself if she chose to.
Noelle Bartunek Noelle Bartunek 5'7" | SG Horace | 2025 State ND – 5’7 G 2025 – Horace (ND) – Noelle has a strong and athletic frame for a 2025 prospect. She was one of the better athletes with room for offensive growth, being only a 2025 prospect.
Makenzie Hughes Makenzie Hughes 5'8" | CG Akron Westfield | 2025 State IA – 5’7 G 2025 – Akron Westerfield (IA) – Makenzie is an Iowa prospect that I hadn’t known previous to the event. She’s a fast athlete that can get up and down the court effortlessly. She was quick with her ball and used her feet very well on the defensive end.
Isabella Anderson Isabella Anderson 5'7" | CG Milbank | 2025 State SD – 5’6 G 2025 – Milbank (SD) – North Tartan – Isabella has some skill to her. A deadly left-handed shooter that has honed her shot out to the three-point line.
Paityn Ziegelmann Paityn Ziegelmann 5'5" | PG Grafton | 2025 ND – 5’5 G 2025 – Grafton (ND) – Paityn’s alertness and effort on both ends were her best traits. Didn’t have a ton of opportunities but found ways to impact the flow of the game.
Jadyn Kor Jadyn Kor 5'10" | SG Pipestone Area | 2025 MN – 5’6 G 2025 – Pipestone Area – (MN) – Jadyn has good quickness and first-step explosion. A smooth and quick movement about her. Could become a solid prospect if she steadily improves her ball-handling and finishing, as she has the athletic ability.
Sloane Keszler Sloane Keszler 5'6" | PG St. Thomas More | 2025 State SD – 5’6 G 2025 – St. Thomas More (SD) – Sloane was a crafty guard handling the ball and putting up floaters. She handled the point guard spot and looked very comfortable in doing so. Point guard looks like her natural position. Her advanced handle and passing ability stood out.
Megan Hjelmstad Megan Hjelmstad 5'5" | SG Horace | 2025 State ND – 5’5 G 2025 – Horace (ND) – Megan is a solid guard that plays a sound game overall. Shoots well enough to consistently be on target from three. A good athlete and movement.
