You will hear about ALL of the leading scorers in the media. That is how it goes. Basketball is the BEST team sport (imo)
Iowa doesn’t win this game without the entire team & without Gabbie Marshall. Gabbie Marshall was one of the BEST defenders on the floor. 3 points on 3 shot…
To the kids that don’t play AAU,
Please remember- YOU can still be recruited at ALL levels. We all know that some families can’t afford it. No matter the reason- Keep your head up & keep working!
One thing that I really want:
The shot clock in high school basketball ASAP!
We probably had 3 or 4 shot clock violations in numerous games played! The athletes can handle it! Let’s make it happen!
They all said - “We knew when Paige Bueckers was in 6th grade.”
**We all know & Annalese Schroeder is in 5th grade.**
This one is going to be so much fun to cover through the years. Keep working young ⭐️
Highlights from the Miracle Classic at the Knoxville Convention Center. Thankful to play on this talented Starz team and thankful to God for the opportunity. Thank you
@wproductions_1
for the highlight.
Guards I want to challenge you.
Work on your post entry passes. 70% could not make a good post entry pass. Put in the time & study the game! As soon as you understand the passing angles, your game improves!
I don’t have my entire schedule panned out for the AAU season yet. However, I will be at the Apache Memorial.
April 19-21st in Knoxville, TN is going to be a great one!
I just want to send out a reminder to younger athletes. This athlete didn’t receive the offer as a freshman or a sophomore. She’s a junior that is WELL on her way to greatness. One of the BEST players in the state!
I don’t know you personally but I know your game translates to…
This is an example of parents. This was on a LIVE about an hour ago. My family was watching, my nephew was watching. I don’t like to put these types of things out there, but enough is enough with parents. I don’t know when it will stop, but it should.
This lady precedes to tell…
Cailyn Taylor (‘27, 5’7 G ETA Thunder Walden) drills in a beauty from deep! Before this shot, she picked too many pockets. A defensive monster that can also drive strong n score, & knock down the outside shot 🔥
I advise all of you to find a way to keep up with this tournament.
I PROMISE DII has basketball players! GREAT ones!
After you finish watching- you will see how good these “D2 ballers” are.
Real hoopers at all levels!
One thing is for sure, I’ll ALWAYS be positive for my kids, your kids, and ALL KIDS! 🫶🏽
Some kids never go home to happiness. It’s ALWAYS bigger than basketball!

@alyxwhite_
for this wonderful idea & growing…
Maddie Braden (CAK, 5’9 ‘27 G) is smooth with the basketball. Extremely smooth shooter & crafty at the rim. A freshman that should be on every single college coach’s radar!
Middle school 🏀 was 🔥 (2x champ)
High school 🏀 was🔥(state title loss)
College 🏀 did not go as I had planned. Played 2 years!
Check your egos. Took me a LONG time to grow up.
I’m an open book. Will help as many young athletes that I can.
To the athletes,
Win or lose- You will remember it all! The grandparents that enjoyed every moment. (Mine are no longer here) You’ve made your family so proud for how you did on & off the court! I know that I did because my parents still send me pictures every March! 🤣 You…
In the sports world, you see so many amazing kids. Lauren Hurst is a two sport athlete that is being recruited at the highest level! If you know anything about sports, you know how incredibly difficult that is. Yes, I’m a little 🤯! This is just not something you see every day.…
Two of the best points guards going head to head in the Summer Slam championship!
Check out Kyndra West (ETA Thunder V. Smith) & Jordan White (TN Flight Trotters Heifner) Both class of 2025!
Both of these teams are loaded with talent from the front court to the back! ⭐️
PSA - I started working with Prep Girls Hoops in March
I am still LEARNING about so many teams, athletes, etc. . .
We can have conversations but don’t be hateful in my messages 😩😂😂
How do you cut your messages off? This needs to be an option. I ain’t opening anymore 😂😂
Meeyah Green (5’7 G, ‘26 Knox Webb) is one of the best players in the state. She’s a leader! I don’t think she gets enough credit for what she truly does. She has led her young team to a final 4 & potentially a championship! What she does on the court is truly impressive. Watch…
It’s an epidemic.
I beg parents and fans: Stop yelling at the refs. What do you think you have to gain?
Does screaming and complaining about calls/non-calls make up for the lack of something in your life? Just watch and cheer for your team.
HS basketball is at a low point.
I’m ready to watch this talent compete!
Excited for this event!
College coaches will be in attendance.
If any other coaches would like to attend, please reach out!
Meet the ‘24 class teams ⬇️
I have openly spoken about 3 kids I would love to see in a Lady Vol uniform. Natalya Hodge, Lauren Hassell & Makynli Bacon.
I’m building my future Lady Vol roster in my own head 🤣
William Blount HS finished with three athletes in double figures- Charlise Scarlett, Savannah Darnell, & Chloe Russell!
Charlise Scarlett & Savannah Darnell are only juniors. Season isn’t over yet & they will be back next year!!
The team defense by William Blount was solid! 🔥
Olivia Loveday (TKA ‘27) has been amazing tonight on both sides of the court! Yes, she is in double figure scoring but what she brings to this team can’t be taught! ENJOY these moments with her on the court because she’s a rare kid/athlete 🔥 Liv’s still THE VOICE 🗣️
Halle Bailey(PG,’26 AlcoaHS)-Appreciate the heck out of this guard! Extremely smart & plays the point guard position EXACTLY how it is supposed to be played! She may be the smallest but she plays BIGGER & TALLER than most!She’s an in your face defender that never stops moving !🔥
Reminder…. NO GAMES this Labor Day Weekend. We will resume play on Sept 9th as teams position themselves for a chance to win a ship along w/ some 🔥gear. Competition is heating up….The smoke show begins soon……Stay tuned for schedule release on Tuesday!
Team Previews are so fun! I’m excited to see so much talent across our area compete this year!
I’ve completed Heritage, Bearden, Farragut, Karns, South Doyle, HVA, & Maryville! Other scouts have touched base on so many other teams too!
Coaches- check your emails! I’ve reached…
Bradley Central 🔥
At this point what can anyone say? Nothing negative, that is for sure.
I want to see Bradley Central play some college teams at this point 🤣
Emma Cooper (‘26, 6’1 PF, York) - The sophomore always does the dirty work! She has good foot work. She’s a good rebounder! Runs the floor extremely well. Will post you up ⬇️🔥

*More kids have committed to playing!
*More college coaches have stated that they will be in attendance too🔥
🎯 I’m 35. I worked in the medical field for over 10 years. Director of Operations for over 2 years at a Telehealth. My passion is not in the medical field. At 34, I started completely over with a sports journey & I’m living my BEST life
⬇️30 is NOT old. Enjoy ALL of the journey!
30 is not old. I want y’all to unlearn that.
It’s causing many to rush their life rather than enjoy the journey.
Your life doesn’t end at 30; it’s still blooming. At 30, you’ve only been an adult for 12 years. You’re not even a “teen” in the “adult years.” Chill out.
Maddie Pike (Oneida MS, G ‘28) is one to keep your eyes one. She’s drilled numerous 3’s. She has a solid outside shot! She makes strong drives to the rim! 🔥
Can we all agree that Freed Hardeman is getting a heck of a player?
Jada Edwards (‘24 Maryville HS) has helped her team take a 1 point lead over a tough Bearden squad. Tough on the glass! She’s knocked down shot after shot! A walking double-double ✍🏽
Isabel Garcia (Cookeville, ‘24) is one of the best post players. Underrated & I’m not sure why! I was impressed watching her for the first time & I still am! She plays the game the right way. Numerous rebounds, finishes strong at the time, & she’s a GOOD basketball player! ✍🏽
She’s the best guard in the state of WV.
Actually, she could go to any state & challenge your best player.
I absolutely LOVE her overall game!
A D1 athlete that you don’t want to play against. Get her on your team ⬇️🔥
To ALL of the athletes- THANK YOU for making this all-star what it was! The effort was great!
I will make a point to be in your area more next season! The talent was/is GREAT!
& to the seniors that I may not see again- you left your marks! Best of luck!
Adison Howard (Stone Memorial HS) The junior guard is by far one of the best passers! The amount of no look passes can’t be counted. The court vision is unreal 👀🔥
Maddie Braden (CAK, 5’9 ‘27 G) - Some College coaches may not have a clue what they need in 4 years just yet. It doesn’t matter. Recruit Maddie Braden. She’s D1 material & she will be a STEAL for every other level. Don’t just put her on your radar. Offer her ASAP!!! 🔥🔥
Every kid is unique. Every athlete’s recruitment journey is different!
I often see, “I’m better than that athlete!” It doesn’t matter if you feel this way!
Recruiters find the right athlete & the right talent for their school! The RIGHT fit may not always be the most talented!
If you have a good basketball mind, you know EXACTLY why every college coach wants Natalya Hodge!
The 5’7 CG is simply different! You have to love watching her play the game. Court vision ✔️ Defense ✔️ Beautiful shot ✔️ & the list can go on & on.
You will see her on TV. You…
Kendall Murphy (G, ‘25 Bearden HS) - The defense by Murphy & the entire Bearden team has been great! Murphy has created too many first half turnovers for me to count. A NEXT level prospect that should have way more offers. A true 2 way player that plays the game the right way!🔥
Cybil Penland (5’10 G/F ‘25 Sevier County HS) - Great versatile player! Can defend all positions! Good size & length with a great understanding of the game. Can play inside/out or wherever you need her. She can definitely score at all levels! 🔥🔥
Kendall Anne Murphy, (Bearden HS)- This junior guard is definitely one of the top ball handlers on the court!Most players don’t understand the importance of having a mid range game. She has one the best! 🔥🔥
Karlie Whited (CAK ‘25 G) is one to put on your radar. A solid guard that does all of the little things. Good defender! When she attacks & gets to the line, she’s automatic!
Aisha Patel (6’ Bearden HS, ‘25) - Getting it done on both sides of the court. Put this wing on your radar now! Drilled back to back 3’s in the first quarter against Maryville. Great footwork too! An extremely high ceiling for this one!
In September 2023, I wrote the article “Keep Her Home”
Ask around & ask Lady Vols fans- You do not want to play against this one. Hodge has offers to play for other SEC teams. It’s up to the new coaching staff now.
Athletes- don’t stop working. Even if you don’t get a “write-up”- The end goal is SO MUCH BIGGER! Keep working. I have new names from today that I will continue to follow. 🏀
“Don’t forget about those hoopers in the trenches!”
This one definitely does a lot of the dirty work! If Cloey Wade isn’t on your radar, she should be ⬇️⬇️🔥🔥
Jadyn Sharp (6’ PF, ‘25 Sevier County HS) - We aren’t talking about this one enough! One of the BEST rebounders! A true post presence that will continue to prove why she is a top post player! She should have more eyes on her! 🔥
Andrea Flores (2026, G, Catholic HS) - Dropped two 3 point bombs in the 1st quarter 🎯 Told y’all before she has one of the cleanest, purest, 3 point shots. 🔥 Holds numerous D1 offers & should hold more 🤷🏻♀️📈📈
