She proved as an eighth-grader that she can compete in the WDA. Look for her to take a big leap forward. Division 1 prospect.
Bergan Kinnebrew Bergan Kinnebrew 5'11" | CG Bismarck Century | 2023 State ND – 5’10 CG 2023 – Bismarck Century – Bergan took her game to a whole new level this off-season for ND Attack. She was in attack-mode off the dribble, showing elite first-step quickness and ability to handle the ball on the drive. She could be one of the top scorers in the WDA.
Genevieve Gruba Genevieve Gruba 5'10" | SF Enderlin | 2023 State ND – 5’10 SF 2023 – Enderlin – Genevieve is a long versatile defender and offensive swiss army knife. She played for top-notch program ND Pro, giving herself great confidence to become dominant in Class B.
Ashley Wacha Ashley Wacha 5'10" | CG Fargo Davies | 2023 State ND – 5’9 CG 2033 – Fargo Davies – Ashley has all the tools and skills to be a complete offensive and defensive prospect. A long guard with good size, that has been waiting patiently for her opportunity.
Ellie Powell Ellie Powell 5'11" | PF Bowman County | 2023 State ND – 5’11 PF 2023 – Bowman County – Ellie really stood out in the action I saw for ND Attack. She showed an offensive skill-set that surprised me and I’m definitely taking notice.
Ashton Safranski Ashton Safranski 5'7" | PG Fargo Davies | 2024 State ND – 5’4 PG 2024 – Fargo Davies – Ashton is a quick point guard that is a defensive nightmare. She’s super-quick with the ball in her hands and is a transition starter.
Jayden Wiest Jayden Wiest 5'5" | CG Mandan | 2024 State ND – 5’5 CG 2024 – Mandan – Jayden is a compact guard that plays consistent from an effort and performance standpoint. She should hit a good amount of threes this season.
Haidyn Crockett Haidyn Crockett 5'9" | PG Northern Cass | 2025 State ND – 5’7 PG 2025 – Northern Cass – Haidyn is an up-and-coming stud prospect in the state. She’s one of the top 2025 prospects and has varsity experience for Northern Cass. She’s a good one — with length and skill.
Maggie Shorma Maggie Shorma 6'1" | SF Fargo Shanley | 2024 State ND – 6’0 Wing 2024 – Fargo Shanley – I’m unsure of what Margeret’s role will be this season but she has the frame and skill with the ball to be an impact player going forward. She may not produce huge numbers this season but I believe she will in future years.
