Heaven Gilbert Heaven Gilbert 5'10" | PF Wichita Heights | 2025 State KS , 5’9″, PG, Wichita Heights, B2B Kansas Bluejays 2023, 2025 – Gilbert’s solid build, quick feet, and good hands enabled her to score around the basket off dishes, entry passes, rebounds, and her own post moves. Absorbs contact well.
Johari Hall, 6’0″, PF, Edmond Central, Team Trae Young 2023, 2026 – Look out! This freshman post player combined her great size, long arms, athleticism, and quick feet with strings of post moves to put up quality shots around the basket.
Jaslene Garcia-Howell, 6’0″, PF, Pawnee Graham’s Shooting Stars 2023, 2026 – Howell can slide into the center position but playing the four is clearly the natural position so far. Howell has a frame that is well liked for the position, ball skills, can score at all three levels, and is very strong.
Taryn Jacobs Taryn Jacobs 6'0" | PF Broken Arrow | 2025 State OK , 6’0″, PF/C, Broken Arrow, Oklahoma Swift 2023, 2023 – Long and fast, Jacobs looks taller than on paper. Uses a variety of moves to score from 10′ in. Played very well all day but needs I would like to see stronger ball protection in the paint when looking to make a move.
Elle Papahronis Elle Papahronis 5'11" | SF Edmond North | 2023 State OK , 6’0″, G/F, Edmond North, Team Trae Young 2023, 2023 – Strong, long, elevates well and quickly, and can attack the basket from high post area effectively with both hands.
Abigail Pedruzzi Abigail Pedruzzi 5'10" | CG Bishop Carroll | 2025 State KS , 5’9″, SF/PF, Bishop Carroll, B2B Kansas Bluejays , 2025 – It did not take long for me to notice how often Pedruzzi was getting clobbered inside. She right away was using her interior quickness and solid post moves to create shots inside. I will be looking for her to gain strength over the year to improve her ability of finishing through the contact.
Elizabeth Walton Elizabeth Walton 5'7" | PG The Village | 2023 State TX , 5’7″, PG, The Village, TNBA Houston 2023, 2023 – What I caught and hung onto with Walton is how well she uses her body to protect shots off the basket drive or transition play. She has a “Beast Mode” type build and quality handles that she used effectively.
