Chloe Gonzalez Chloe Gonzalez 5'10" | SG Glenbrook South | 2024 State IL | ’24 Forward | Glenbrook South
Crafty, patient, and aware. That’s a sum of the glimpse I saw of Chloe. She can score from all 3 areas of the court. The patience mixed with Gonzalez’s ability to slash is a game-changer. Her stop and pop is midrange money, so no matter what… the defender is on their heels. The young guard is only time away from becoming a special player.
Erin Henry Erin Henry 5'8" | CG Example Academy | 2023 State IL | ’23 Forward | Example Academy
Erin is a STRONG & hard nose guard, who can play the 1/2 with no drop-offs. She’s a plug-and-play type of player. No matter the role, she can be plugged in and make a huge difference. Offensively, she showed an array of moves to put up points. Even after suffering a rolled ankle in the 3rd game… she showed heart by wanting to stay in to help her team with the Win.
Kree Nunnally Kree Nunnally 5'10" | SF Example Academy | 2023 State IL | ’23 Forward | Crystal Lake
Around the rim.. strong. Motor… high. Kree is a low post problem. She was able to finish consistently through contact, under the basket, and also with her back to the rim. She stays active on the boards and is always in a great position to make a second chance play if needed. The mid-range is no stranger for her either, she can knock em down at a high rate.
Khaliah Reid Khaliah Reid 5'6" Waubonsie Valley | 2023 IL | ’23 Guard | Metea Valley
Though both hands work just as well, if she drives to the right… It’s a bucket. Her speed matched with her body control made her a huge threat on the offensive side all day. The frame of Khaliah doesn’t show her strength but ask a defender and they’ll tell you it’s there. She’s more than a tough matchup. Scouting reports will have to be extensive.
Hailey Hillman Hailey Hillman 6'0" | SF Whitney Young | 2023 State IL | ’23 Wing/Forward | Whitney Young
A strong, tough, and versatile wing. Hailey’s length matched with her game is an absolute problem for all opponents. She can score from paint to arc and defend from post to perimeter. Her motor and overall energy are a compliment to the way she rebounds. Offense or defensive glass… she’s wiping down the boards.
Bibi Mercado Bibi Mercado 5'5" | PG West Aurora | 2023 State IL | ’23 Guard | West Aurora
Her IQ of the game can be seen from tip-off to the end. Bibi thinks the game a frame ahead. She can control pace, facilitate and show patience. Her movements continued to put her in great positions to benefit her team throughout the day. Her skillset was definitely tested, but she showed why she is rising in the rankings.
