[The Double Deuce]

I will put out my list after school starts, but thanks for doing one too - should be a good conversation starter.  

Aniyah Carter from Holy Cross may be Top 10 in NKY, certainly in the conversation, and I don't see that you have her listed.  

Will be a very interesting year in NKY / 9th region Hoops with the outrageous amount of talent that has graduated the last two years.  There are some high level players remaining, for sure, but it is really time for that Sophomore Class that has been so talked about for the last several years, to start making their way at a higher level.  Haylee Noel and Brynlee Pernell (SK / 8th) may be the best of the bunch right now, but there is a LOT of talent in that class which should be fun to watch the next 3 years.

Young Freshman from Beechwood named Gia Jones is pretty good. They have a new coach so we'll see how the season goes.

She can certainly shoot it.

I'd add Pelfrey to this list. Missed last season due to knee injury, but averaged 8ppg for Dixie Heights as a Freshman.
