2030 Mattie Creson (McDowell): High-IQ guard with a knockdown shooting touch. Has been efficient from the midrange and beyond the arc early. Active in the passing lanes, creates turnovers, rebounds well, and competes on both ends. #LadyTop80

6’0” 2027 Lanie Dameron (McDowell) has been a key interior presence for her team thus far today.
Rebounding well, catching and finishing in traffic with consistency.
