Week 4 of the Grand Rapids Fall League got off to a good start with a great game between Maddy Watters and the Rockford Rams and Jen Deboer and the South Christian Sailors.  South Christian got out to an early lead and stayed in control the majority of the game. Jen Deboer continues to impress me with her leadership and ability to see the open floor and attack the basket. Maddy Watters can flat out ball. In addition to shooting the three, she also gave the occasional no-look or behind the back pass, showing she plays with a swagger of her own. South Christian ended up pulling out a close one.

The Davenport University commit is a strong athletic wing that can shoot the three. She really showed that she is tough and willing to be the gritty defensive player her team will need.

A quick and explosive guard, Barkley likes to score in transition and can also get to the rim, finishing with contact. She is good defender that made things very uncomfortable for her opponents.
