Jaida Young Jaida Young 5'7" | CG Watertown | 2023 State SD competed in the Fargo event and will also be at the Pentagon. From my reports, she was a major standout, so she’s one to watch.
Ryann Barry Ryann Barry 5'8" | CG TF Riggs Pierre SD | 2024 State SD of Pierre is one I’m excited to see. We’re fairly high on her ranking compared to the consensus. Feel like she is very underrated and she’ll look to prove herself and bring some energy.
Also, I’m looking forward to watching some of the out-of-state prospects and the 2026 prospects.
