Schools/Teams Included:
Bismarck Century
Bismarck Legacy
Bismarck High
Bismarck St. Mary’s
Shiloh Christian
Mandan
#1 Logan Nissley Logan Nissley 6'0" | CG Bismarck Century | 2023 State ND – Bismarck Century – The #1 prospect in the state happens to be the #1 prospect in her city. I would assume her main goal this season is to bring back the championship banner to Century.
#2 McKenna Johnson McKenna Johnson 6'2" | PF Mandan | 2025 State ND – Mandan – The 6-2 Sophomore has already broken out but she’s in store for a major season and will solidify herself as a top prospect in the region. Major national D1 programs have her on notice.
#3 Bergan Kinnebrew Bergan Kinnebrew 5'11" | CG Bismarck Century | 2023 State ND – Bismarck Century – Bergan committed to D2 University of Mary and they are getting a good one. A D1 level talent that is creative as a scorer and tough to contain.
#4 Brooklynn Felchle Brooklynn Felchle 6'3" | C Bismarck Legacy | 2025 State ND – Bismarck Legacy – You can’t teach size and Felchle has that at 6-3 and a complete frame with a length and a strong build.
#5 Peyton Neumiller Peyton Neumiller 5'10" | SG Bismarck High | 2023 State ND – Bismarck High – Peyton is a stud offensive player but she may be even better as a defensive playmaker. Look for her scoring output to take a jump and for her to continue to be a disruptive defensive player.
#6 Alyssa Eckroth Alyssa Eckroth 6'1" | SG Bismarck Legacy | 2023 State ND – Bismarck Legacy – Alyssa recently committed to D2 Western Colorado. She’s been mentioned on the site a bunch, but I’m not sure I’ve mentioned her intangibles and love for game. Works on her game year-round and is consistently improving. I like that she chose D2, as she’ll be an impact player at that level.
#7 Mykendra Messer Mykendra Messer 5'10" | SF St. Mary’s | 2023 State ND – Bismarck St. Mary’s – There’s a lot to like about Mykendra as a prospect. A non-flashy guard/wing with size and is a knockdown three-point shooter. Has a textbook release from three and is highly accurate. Has a strong frame that she uses well to defend in the post. One of the more complete prospects you’ll find.
#8 Hailey Quam Hailey Quam 5'11" | SF Shiloh Christian | 2023 State ND – Shiloh Christian – Hailey has a good size at 6-0 and production combination as the Class A level. I would love to see her compete at the A level to see how she would fare. Her motor and ability to finish as a scorer is respected by many.
#9
Mia Berryhill

Bismarck Legacy | 2024
State
ND
– Bismarck Legacy – Mia is a prospect that could easily climb this list in the early goings of the high school season. She’s been expanding her individual offensive game and becoming a playmaker. Could be in for a surprising Junior season.
#10

Wiest

Mandan | 2024
State
ND
– Mandan – Jayden missed last season due to injury but she’s in store to produce for Mandan in her Junior season. High intangibles and work ethic from my sources.
#11
Jersey Berg
Jersey
Berg
5'11" | SF
Bismarck | 2024
State
ND
– Bismarck High – Jersey is a highly underrated prospect that needs and deserves to be mentioned more. 5.6 ppg. as a Sophomore on a very good Bismarck roster.
#12
Lydia Spies
Lydia
Spies
5'9" | CG
St. Mary’s | 2023
State
ND
– Bismarck St. Mary’s – Lydia is an athletic and explosive guard that also handles the ball for St.Mary’s. I’m not sure if she translates to a point guard but she translates as a playmaking guard, without a doubt.
#13 Dedra Wood Dedra Wood 5'11" | SF Shiloh Christian | 2024 State ND – Shiloh Christian – Dedra isn’t talked about enough as a long 6-0 guard/wing. One I’ll watch more coming up but she can score and move at size and length.
#14 Paige Breuer Paige Breuer 5'7" | CG Bismarck | 2024 State ND – Bismarck High – Paige is in store for a large role going into her Junior season with both Gerving guards graduating. Scored 8.0 ppg. and that number should take a nice bump up.
#15 Whitney Welk Whitney Welk 5'7" | PG Bismarck Legacy | 2025 State ND – Bismarck Legacy – A smaller prospect but is an electric athlete with elite movement skills. She plays full-go on both ends and is constantly impacting the game with her athletic ability. She’s one I’m excited to watch and see what her high school role will be.
Honorable Mention:
Anna Lyles Anna Lyles 5'8" | SG Mandan | 2026 State ND – The 2026 prospect is one I haven’t seen yet, but she is expected to be one of the top players in Bismarck going forward. A 5-8 shooting guard to look out for for Mandan.
Lexi Gerving Lexi Gerving 5'10" | SF St. Mary's | 2024 State ND of St. Mary’s barely misses the list. A prospect I like that may be overlooked.
