Grace Hollifield – DL Impact – 2020
Hollifield appears to be coming into her own this spring. The 6-foot wing showed the ability to initiate her team’s offense tonight as a lead guard. That coupled with her long range shooting ability and paint scoring makes her an intriguing prospect for the next level.
Lizzie Campbell – EOTO – 2020
Versatility is the name of the for forwards. Campbell showed plenty of that tonight in the opening night of the tournament. She has the size and strength to snatch up rebounds and score in the paint. However, she has some ball skill that allows her to step away from the block as well.
Maddie Abercrombie – North Georgia Lady Raiders – 2023
Abercrombie is a promising guard from the Forsyth County area. Her shot making ability made her a standout tonight. However, her strong fundamentals and understanding of the game should allow to make an impact even when she does not have open shots.
Ashlee Locke – EOTO – 2021
Locke has as high of a ceiling as any prospect in this weekend’s tournament. The 6-4 center is a threat to block shots in the paint or step out and nail 3-pointers from beyond the arc. Her confidence seemingly grows with each outing, which is a positive sign for the sophomore as she heads into the April viewing period.
