made from Year 1 to Year 2 landed her Class 5A’s Most Improved Player, posting 14.9 points, 10.6 rebounds and 2 blocks per game. Lewis’ confidence and coordination grew her sophomore season. Lewis has improved her strength and balance. She shoots the three and now handles the ball with confidence, starting her own fast breaks. Lewis is skyrocketing up recruiting boards. Emaya could be a Top 5 prospect in her class when all is said and done. She has really separated herself from other post players in her class.

takes a substantial leap in the rankings. She averaged 15 points per game her sophomore season. Barrett really cemented her movement at the Sandy’s Spiel Spring Showcase, showcasing her ability to lead, play make and score consistently. The wiry guard can take bumps while getting downhill and finish with either hand. Her passing is impressive and her ability to handle pressure is getting better.

is for real. She averaged 15.5 points, 10.5 rebounds and 5.7 blocks. She does a great job swallowing up shots without fouling and most of the time doesn’t even need to leave the floor due to her elite length. Pelote is a game-changing post presence that also has strong moves with her back to the basket. Buy stock.

is an All-State scoring guard that is tough to corral. She’s got elusive quickness and is a great shooter off the dribble with deep range. When she attacks downhill, she uses a pretty floater to beat shot blockers. Davis plays with great energy and is a pesky defender.
