Continue ReadingThe Dakota Top 250 didn’t have a ton of size and true post prospects in the 6’2+ range. But the event did have some wings and guards with some solid length to them. PGH Dakotas has identified nine prospects that stood out with their length.
Makinley Lawrenson Makinley Lawrenson 5'11" | SF Harrisburg | 2025 State SD – 5’11 Wing/F 2025 – Harrisburg – Makinley had one of the most impressive length builds at the wing/forward spot. She showed she can run and play on the perimeter at a near six-foot and a clearly positive wingspan.
Grace Peterson Grace Peterson 6'0" | SF Sioux Falls Washington | 2025 State SD – 5’11 F 2025 – Sioux Falls Washington – Grace was a standout performer at the event and rose her stock significantly in the South Dakota 2025 class. She is currently the 30th ranked 2025 prospect but I can see her climbing up into the top 12. At the event, she was a big-time playmaker, scorer, and rebounder. She was equally impressive in transition, finishing on her own often.
Brenna Martin Brenna Martin 6'1" | C Thompson | 2024 State ND – 6’1 C 2024 – Thompson – Brenna was also a clear stock-riser and performed at a high level. She scored in the interior and hit some mid-range shots as well. One of the obvious standouts at the event.
Mak Scott Mak Scott 6'0" | C Lyman | 2026 State SD – 6’0 C/F 2026 – Lyman – Mak is a young prospect that has good length, giving her some upside. A slender frame and can run well. She’ll need to develop some more playing strength to allow her to battle in the paint.
Bree Umbreit Bree Umbreit 6'2" | SF Tea Area | 2026 State SD – 6’2 C/F 2026 – Tea Area – Bree might have possibly had the greatest length at the event. She’ll be a Freshman for Tea Area and she had some valuable experience playing for SD Network in the offseason. Moves fairly well at her length.
Brooke Jensen Brooke Jensen 6'0" | SF Vermillion | 2025 State SD – 6’0 F/Wing 2025 – Vermillion – Brooke was conservatively at top 5 prospect at the event. She’s a D1 talent that possesses 6’0 length and a strong frame. She can shoot the three-ball and she showed some toughness as a rebounder and defender. I thought she played hard and brought a lot of energy. She was contesting shooters and attacking the ball and rebounds.
Whitney Welk Whitney Welk 5'7" | PG Bismarck Legacy | 2025 State ND – 5’6 G 2025 – Bismarck Legacy – Whitney’s length surprised me after seeing her live and in-person. Listed at only 5’6, she looked to have length of a 5’9-5’10 prospect. She was a top 3 defender at the event and harassed opponents on defense. Elite movement defensively.
Kinsey Dillavou Kinsey Dillavou 5'10" | SG Rapid City Stevens | 2026 State SD – 5’10 F 2026 – Rapid City Stevens – Stevens may have been the most well represented with prospects at the event, and the 2026 prospect showed great length at 5’10, with some built-in upside in skill development to match her prototypical length.
Blake Thompson Blake Thompson 5'7" | SG McLaughlin | 2026 State SD – 5’6 G 2026 – Mobridge-Pollock – Blake was another guard that I was surprised to see listed at 5’6 because she looked much taller than that because of her being a lengthy guard with long arms. She was a solid athlete that could move and run well.
