Caleigh Carruthers – East Tennessee Elite
Carruthers is a tough minded wing with good size and fundamentals. She showed her ability to stretch the floor with her jumper. Yet she is willing to mix it up on the interior with defending and rebounding as well.
Tori Rojek – Alabama Cardinals – 2023
Rojek is a left-handed guard who showed strong ball handling skills this weekend. Her ability to pound the rock and change directions quickly allowed her to navigate past defenders. The eighth grader is on the right trajectory.
Hanna Cannon – EOTO – 2020
Cannon is a versatile wing-forward who scored 19 points in the tourney’s final game. She knocked down several 3-pointers in this one while also mixing it up in the lane.
Jillianne Daniels – East Tennessee Elite – 2022
Daniels has a world of upside at the game of basketball. Her size and footwork allow her to make an impact in the paint. A right handed player, Daniels actually has a soft left-handed jump hook shot that she can pour in over smaller defenders. If Daniels continues to grow physically, she could be a top prospect in East Tennessee by her senior year.
Lucy Hood – EOTO – 2024
Hood is an up and coming guard from Rabun County. She has an advanced understanding of how to handle the ball versus pressure. The seventh grader is a steady hand at the point guard position.
Kierra Bishop – East Tennessee Elite – 2022
Bishop came through in a big way today in an East Tennessee Elite win. She scored 14 points, which included the game winning 3-pointer at the buzzer. The 5-7 guard hit four 3-pointers in total in the morning game. We saw her skill last year at the #CoachHemi865 Showcase in Knoxville, Tennessee.
