Warsaw, IN – High school basketball has come to an end, and players are ready to travel and show college coaches what they bring to the court. Always 100 fulfilled this assignment by hosting their 2022 Spring Showcase. Lady Ballers from grades 8th-11th laced up their sneakers and showed up ready to put in work. Here are a few of the standouts from the morning session.

MORNING SESSION STANDOUTS

 

Kiora Bell 2025 Canterbury
Sometimes in settings like a showcase, its easy to get lost in the crowd. Kiora did not allow this to happen to her. She made some tough moves to the hoop and showed spurts of scoring in a dominant fashion. She was a quiet storm. 

Elliana Foley 2025 Legg 
Even as a young lady baller, Elliana understands that you don’t need the ball in your hands to make a difference or impact the game. She has an excellent IQ, and she uses it to create for herself and others. She has great timing and sees the court. 

Jordyn Poole 2024 Snider
If “I play hard every possession because I just don’t get tired” were a person…it would be Jordyn. She is quick with and without the ball, making her a nice offensive threat and the perfect defensive pest. She can handle the ball under pressure and is highly effective in transition. 

Destini Craig 2024 Snider
Destini has improved her game since the last time we saw her. She’s more aggressive offensively and much more of a verbal leader. During the individual workstations, her desire to push herself and those around her to go hard and not let up was evident. 

Nevaeh Jackson 2023  Northrop
Athletic with a long stretch Nevaeh was very effective on the defensive end. She altered and blocked shots, deflected passes, and created some great transition scoring opportunities. She has high energy that is contagious.  

Maya Makalusky 2024 Hamilton Southeastern
Maya was impressive. She plays multiple positions and has a solid inside and outside game. She showed some nice post moves on the block, finishing strong even with some heavy contact. She also sank some pretty deep threes. She has a nice wingspan that she utilizes to block shots and rebound. She sees the court and drops some great passes.  

Brooke Winchester 2025 Warsaw
Fighting for position and making herself available to catch and shoot was Brooke’s focus. She moved well without the ball in the halfcourt set and in transition. She read the defense well and made necessary adjustments, cutting and flashing to the gaps.

Kristlynn Minor 2024 Penn
Kristlynn was not the laydown and settle for defeat type of player. From the start of the individual workstations to the final game, she gave 110%. She was aggressive on both ends, giving contact while taking some of her own. She fought for rebounds and scoring opportunities. She has high energy and a nice upside.

Emma Daughtery 2025 Huntington North 
Emma is a shooter. Not sure if she even knows it yet. She can hit the bottom of the net from just about anywhere and did so off the bounce more than she did in a catch and shoot situation. She has a long stretch and shoots the ball high, which works to her advantage in more ways than one. Once she realizes just how good she is and can be, watch out, world. 

Charlotte Miller 2025 Ann Arbor Gabriel Richard (MI)
Charlotte is a feisty guard that does not mind getting a little dirty. On defense, she is vocal with active hands and plays the lane well. She can shoot from deep or make a strong move and get to the rim. Charlotte is an impact player. 

Kyra Hill 2024 Goshen
An undeniable presence on the inside, Kyra snagged down hard fought for rebounds and took advantage of second chance points. She dominates when her back is to the basket. She made some great moves on the block and showed her footwork abilities, finishing strong. She has an amazing upside and will make a lot of noise as the travel season progresses.

Molly Baker 2024 Columbia City
Along with stirring up trouble in the paint for almost the entire game, Molly spotted her cutting teammates and made some passes that led to points on the board. She is a strong rebounder on both ends. She’s a vocal player, even when she’s not on the court.

Kyra Parker 2025 Snider
Athletic and quick, Kyra was awesome at moving without the ball and creating scoring opportunities for herself. Her first step was often too quick for her opponent, allowing her to get to the basket with ease. She is not afraid to let it fly from behind the arc either.   

Addie Shank 2024 Bishop Dwenger
It’s not often you see a post player directing traffic and resetting an offensive possession, but that’s exactly what Addie did. She noticed when the ball wasn’t moving, or her teammates were just standing, and she almost immediately started giving out directions. She is a tough player that does not shy away from battling for a rebound or setting a hard pick.  

Afternoon Session Standouts

 

Clare Burda 2026 Homestead
Setting the bottom of the net on fire quickly became a norm for Clare. She let her shot fly without hesitation from deep. In one game, Clare sank four threes in just the first half of play. She used her length to shoot high, and her release was quick.  

Bree Walmsley 2023 East Noble
Getting inside the paint for easy buckets or sweet passes to her teammates was what Bree did best. She has a quick first step and often had her opponents chasing her on defense. She has a big court presence and was a standout leader. 

Jacelyn Starks 2024 Anderson
Jacelyn is a true hustle player on both ends of the court, always in the mix. She got back on transition defense consistently and was able to get big stops. She was comfortable at the rim but did not mind knocking buckets down from deep also.  

Addison Baxter 2025 Columbia City
Addison has a strong fundamental skill set. Her simplicity to the game is not only very effective but impressive. She made great shot selections, and her stop and pop jump shot was almost perfect for the day. 

Justyce Williams 2024   Jimtown HS
Justyce brings a type of hustle and energy that makes her teammates want to push and play harder. She is a strong defender, always the first one back in transition. She created shots for herself but never forced it. She made smart decisions with the ball in her hands. Justyce often found the open man and delivered great passes.  

Giselle Eke 2024 Bishop Dwenger
An undeniable presence inside the paint, Giselle was strong and controlled the boards on both ends. She did a great job of setting her feet and getting positioned to receive the ball and score. She runs the court well and has a ton of potential that make her a well known player to watch out for.  

Carma Bryant 2024 Concordia Lutheran
Carma is the type of player that all coaches love. She works hard on offense and defense. She does whatever needs to be done to get the win. She battles for rebounds, made strong moves to the rim to score, played solid defense, and hustled for loose balls. She did it all without hesitation and with no complaints.

Alexis Castator 2024 FW Carroll 
A player that can play multiple positions, Alexis seems to be most comfortable in the small forward/wing position. Each game, she sank three or more shots from behind the arc. She can put the ball on the court and bully her way to the basket when she needs to. An avid shot blocker, Alexis has solid defense and timing. 

Gabi Halliwill 2024 Lansing Catholic (MI)
Gabbi stood out as an active floor leader right away. She calls for the ball and instantly became the floor general. She has good floor vision, allowing her to advance the ball in transition and find the cutter in the half court set. Gabi can also knock down deep shots from behind the arc.  

Aubrey Bleeke 2025 Snider
Most young ladies would look at you strange if you gave them a nickname like Pitbull. However, in this instance, I can’t think of a more fitting name for Aubrey. Her on the ball defense was hands down one of the best I saw all day. She has quick feet and great lateral movement. She did a great job of playing the lanes also, jumping in front of passes, and creating easy transition points.

Myah Epps 2026 Homestead
Myah has game that advances her young age. She is patient on offense, never forcing anything and taking high percentage shots. She is gritty and tough on defense. She sits down and gets right in her opponent’s space. She handled the ball under pressure and created scoring opportunities for teammates as well as herself. Another name to remember as the year progresses.

Annaka Nelson 2023 Concordia Lutheran
A great team player with high energy, Annaka was extremely active on both ends of the court. On offense, she did a good job securing her position on the block and kicking it out to reset when she needed to. She’s very vocal and a great communicator. Annaka is a workhorse that played every possession like the game was online.
