Zion Belcher-Arill Zion Belcher-Arill 6'2" | PF Campbell Hall | 2025 CA (2025, Grand Rapids Christian)
It’s really hard to believe that she’s only a freshman. She has varsity level strength and conditioning already, plus a versatile game to go with it. Belcher-Arill did a little of everything on Sunday, from working the glass for put back buckets, to stepping out for triples, to handling the ball for her team.
Aliyah Hershberger Aliyah Hershberger 5'6" | CG Mishawaka Marian | 2023 IN (2023, Concord)
Hershberger was impressive at the Hankamp Hoops Open Run. She proved to be a scoring threat at all 3 levels. Hershberger hit some mid range jumpers, a couple of the pull up variety in which she stopped quickly which created space. She finished at the rim through contact and stepped behind the arc and buried a triple as well.
Ella Mohamed Ella Mohamed 5'6" | SG Northridge | 2025 IN (2025, Northridge)
Mohamed is so strong for a freshman and she knows how to use her strength. I loved her straight line bulldog drive to the rim. She also used her strangth on the defensive end, not giving up ground and pressuring the ball. Mohamed sees the floor like a cagy veteran and made some eye popping passes on Sunday.
Kyndra Sheets Kyndra Sheets 5'6" | PG Columbia City | 2024 State IN (2024, Columbia City)
Anyone that talks on D at an open run as much as Sheets did, deserves a spot on this list. She really brought it on the defensive end as a whole. In particular, I liked her anticipation and ability to jump the passing lanes. Sheets ran the floor well, finishing at both sides of the basket as well as flaunting a nice touch pass.
Kendal Taylor Kendal Taylor 6'2" | C Concord | 2023 IN (2023, Concord)
Taylor really put in work with her back to the basket. She established position under the rim, most comfortably on the right side. After Taylor gained position she did a nice job showing herself and staying pass ready while waiting for the post feed. I really liked her spin move toward the lane when she finished over her right shoulder.
Zoe Willems (2024, Bethany)
I really enjoyed watching Wilems play at the Hankamp Hoops Open Run. One word popped into mind while watching her – Slippery. She was slick in the open floor, finding open lanes and sliding into them. Willems kept the defense away from the ball, protecting it with her offhand. Willems has a whole lot of upside as a player and prospect.
