2022 Hope Fox 5’8 CG East Central
Hope caught our attention last year at the showcase with her athleticism. After watching her a few times over the high school season and during the summer I have really become a fan of her game. She is comfortable handling against pressure, can push the ball with quickness and has an explosive leaping ability at the basket. She shows the ability to score it at all levels and can knock it down from the three-point line. She has a quick step and plays bigger than her size with her 25” vertical. As she has continued to grow her confidence and aggressive play she has become a nice backcourt prospect in the 22’ class.

She set tempo, repeatedly found the open teammate, and created space and angles to get her teammates opportunities. She also displayed the ability to score it as an athletic playmaker.

2022 Kaylee Martin 5’10 SG Evansville North
Kaylee excels at making herself shot ready and finding space along the three-point line as a catch and shoot jump shooter. She has length and a quick release that allow her to get off shots even when contested. She is capable of putting a straight-line drive together when closed out on but most of her opportunities will come from deep. As she develops her game off the bounce, she has nice value as long strong shooting guard. Kaylee put together a real nice day and was mentioned by multiple coaches throughout the event.

2022 Alaina Thorne 5’11 PF Washington
Alaina has been a significant stock riser over the last year. An athletic lefty that is hard to handle around the bucket with her bounce and agility. She is explosive attacking the left side and can finish around the hoop in a variety of ways. As she continues to improve her faceup game away she is a tough matchup for most. She runs the floor, is quick to the ball off the rim and can defend multiple spots with her length and mobility. Alaina was voted onto the All-Showcase team by the event coaching staff.

2023 Julia Economou 5’10 CG Penn
Julia has an athletic game with a long strong frame. She has been transforming her game over the last couple years from the front court to the backcourt. She is at her best getting downhill and using her physicality and athleticism slashing to the basket where she can get off shots in a variety of ways with her agility. She is still developing as a jump shooter. She is capable of defending multiple spots with her size and strength and rebounds it at high level with those some physical attributes. Julia has considerable upside as she continues to develop her backcourt skills.

2023 Laney Hawkins 5’7 SG Charlestown
We got to see Laney a few times over the winter, where she got varsity minutes as a frosh, and again several times this summer. She is a solid athlete with a good deal of skill from the guard spot. She can handle as a primary when needed, shows ability to hit open shots and will be aggressive to the rim. She will need to continue to add to her frame and strength to take advantage of her overall game but a lot of the pieces are there that can make her a really solid guard prospect in the 23’ class. Laney had a solid day throughout the the showcase.

2023 Tatum Mcfarland 5’8 CG Jeffersonville
Tatum got a lot of high level varsity experience as frosh. That has shown through in her game and confidence. She can handle it some when needed and can shoot the ball out to the three-point line. She has a fairly strong frame, has some length, and is deceptively athletic as she showed in the Indiana Combine a week ago. As she continues to develop her attack off the bounce and balances that with her three-point shooting, she will be a prospect to keep an eye on. She was noted by multiple coaches during the course of the showcase.

2023 Avery Patterson 5’4 PG Brown County
Avery opened a lot of eyes at last year’s showcase as she was named to the All-Showcase Team. We got to see her during the high school season and several times over this club season and she has proven herself as a very skilled guard in the 23’ class.

She had another solid Pre-Season showcase and was noted by the coaching staff for he play during the event.

2023 Brooklyn Peterson 5’10 SF Mitchell
We saw Brooklynn at a couple workouts and several times over the summer and there is a lot to like. Start with her long strong frame and add that to her fluid game and agility and she is a tough matchup. She shows the ability to hit the open mid-range shot and will get downhill and attack the basket with her strength and skill. She has the versatility to work smaller matches around the basket or take others off the bounce from the wing. Brooklyn was voted onto the All-Showcase team by the event coaching staff.

2023 Kaitlyn Shoemaker 5’4 CG Noblesville
Kaitlyn is a feisty guard with a good amount of skill. We saw her a few times over the winter where she got varsity minutes as a frosh for Noblesville. She will dig in defensively and make her matchup work for her space. She can handle when needed, shows good court vision while on the move and finds the open teammate. She is a capable jump shooter out to the three-point line. The coaches liked her intensity and motor on both ends of the floor.

2024 Bradie Chambers 5’6 CG Linton-Stockton
We were able to view Bradie this summer playing with some talented upperclassmen and was really impressed with her composure and skill for a 24’ at that level. So, we were excited to have her in for this year’s showcase. Once again, she handled herself very well. She has a nice guard frame, is fairly strong for her age and is deceptively athletic. She shows a good deal of skill from the backcourt as well with the ability to handle when needed, has an aggressive downhill attack, and showed the ability to hit the open shot. We would not be surprised if she is an instant contributor for the 2A defending state champ Miners.

2024 Kennedy Coleman 5’10 SF Charlestown
We first saw Kennedy early this spring in a workout and seems that we have seen her in every gym and event since. She is putting in the work and challenging herself against the elite and we have noted the improvements in her game in that short time. She has a long athletic frame, is willing to play physical and downhill to the rim, shows good ball skill and is improving her versatility and game from the permitter. She displays an overall fluid game and shows good instincts for the action on both ends. She was runner-up in the Skills Challenge as well.

2024 Kaiden Kreinhagen 5’8 SG North Central
Kaiden is solid in a lot of areas including her approach and IQ for the game. She excels as a shooter and has a nice mid-range game that includes a pull-up and can shoot it consistently out to the three-point line. She is also sneaky athletic and can make plays in transition or can put an attack together where she can get into the paint and finish with a fair amount of agility and athleticism. There is a lot to like early on about her game and as she continues to develop as a ball handler and if she continues to grow some, she will be a tough matchup. Kaiden was voted onto the All-Showcase team by the event coaching staff.

2024 Veronica Lugo 5’2 PG Lawrence Central
Veronica has shown very well in the two events she has spent with us this fall. She has a good handle, is shifty with the ball and shows a quick step. She pushes tempo, is in attack mode and displayed good court vision while on the move. She is a willing defender and can put pressure on the ball 84’ with her quick hands, feet and good motor. A young skilled point guard that caught the attention of our coaching staff.

2024 Macy Oberlin 6’1 SF Angola
Macy had a really nice summer and has followed that up with a couple solid showings in our fall events. She has a ton of upside with her long athletic frame (over 92” reach) and wingspan, to go with her fluid play from the wing. She is comfortable operating at the basket using her agility and reach to get off shots in traffic or she can step away and hit shots in the mid-range and out to the three. She will need to continue to add strength and explosiveness, but she projects as a very versatile prospect. With the combination of her size and ball skill the coaching staff took notice of Macy’s game and potential.

2024 Regan Wilson 5’6 PG Noblesville
Its not often that you see an incoming frosh with the leadership skills, confidence and court awareness that Reagan brings to the floor. She is constantly communicating, directing traffic, and encouraging teammates like a seasoned upperclassman. Not to mention the skill she brings to the floor from the PG spot. She handles it against pressure, sets up teammates while on the move and makes plays with her high motor. She will need to continue to add consistency as a jump shooter, but the future is bright for this kid. Her nonstop motor and communication were noted by our staff. Regan was voted onto the All-Showcase team by the event coaching staff.
