Not everyone is blessed with height or freakish athleticism, but we all have a heart and this group of players displayed that all day long at the Prep Girls Hoops Top 250 Expo!
Highlights
Another diminutive guard with the heart of a lion! She’s scrappy, competitive and shoots the ball very well. She leads by example by just playing hard. That was on full display at the Top 250 as I’m sure she was ruffling some feathers just by how hard she was playing. I loved every minute of it!
Burkhart has actually put on a few inches believe it or not and is poised to surprise some folks this upcoming high school season. Over the past two seasons she has really worked on becoming a well-rounded point guard and that time in the gym showed up on Saturday as she did a good job of picking her spots and looking to get teammates involved.
Chappell was one of the lucky players to be on the team that was down to just five bodies to wrap up the showcase. Without a sub she was flying all over the court on defense and mustered up enough energy to come up with some big baskets to help will her team to a very surprising victory that capped off her impressive day.
Anyone that has ever had the pleasure of watching Chloe play knows one thing, she’s not afraid of the moment. She has an insane level of confidence that borders cockiness, but that’s what makes her so effective on the court. Despite her size, she just has a knack of getting the ball in the bucket. She’s a gym rat who’s ready to lace them up anytime and anywhere!
Edwards has played in big games her whole AAU career so there’s not much she hasn’t seen. She was usually playing out of position but all that has done is made her one heck of a tough player. All of her experience and grit was on full display Saturday as she was flying all over the place. If you dare step in front of Edwards on the way to the basket you better be prepared to take a hit, because she is!
