Lanae Dallas is a shifty PG who plays with a lot of creativity. Her Athleticism and ability to make plays in the open court really stand out at The Prelude. If she continues to get more consistent in her jumper that will really set her apart from the other PG’s in her class.
Dallas holds offers from SMU, Arizona State, Virginia Tech, Texas Tech, Houston and has interest from TCU, Michigan state and more
Audrey Berry – 2029 PG | DeSoto High School
Audrey Berry is up next. The 2029 point guard from DeSoto High School is quickly making a name for herself and will be in the mix this spring and summer. Audrey runs the offense with confidence and showcases fearless competitiveness every time she steps on the court.
A knockdown shooter both off the dribble and in catch and shoot situations, Berry forces defenders to stay honest. Her tight ball handling stood out poised under pressure and nearly impossible to turn over. She showed excellent touch finishing at the rim and a natural feel for controlling the game’s tempo.
Quiet off the court but commanding on it, Audrey lets her play do the talking. Extremely coachable, team-oriented, and composed beyond her years a true floor general in the making and a definite Stock Riser

Sukri Kinney 5’7 PG 2029 North Crowley
Kinney is a fast pace young PG with a high IQ for her age. She excels in the open court and defends well on-ball. I think if she adds more floaters, runners, mid range pull ups to her game it will open up more opportunities for her to make plays on the court.
Kinney has interest from schools like
UTA, Wichita State and more
Finley Heihn – 5’11” Guard 2029
Finley Heihn made her presence known from the start. The 5’11” guard brings a polished skill set and elite versatility to the floor. With a long wingspan and active hands, she locks in defensively creating turnovers and disrupting passing lanes with ease. Offensively, she’s a dual threat: capable of stretching the floor with her three-point shot and attacking the rim with strength and control. Finley’s basketball IQ shines through her communication, court vision, and ability to make teammates better.She had the full attention of Sudden Exposure and turned heads performing in front of college coaches. Don’t be surprised when Finley Heihn’s stock rises fast this season she’s one to watch.

Angelina Medlock 5’10 G 2029 Grace Prep
Medlock is nice combo guard who plays the right way. Making the one more pass, making plays out of offensive set/actions. I really think she’ll grow into an elite player once she improves on the consistency on her jumper, right now it is serviceable.
Medlock has received an offer from Texas A&M & had interest from Texas Tech, Wisconsin, and more
Justice Woods 5’10 PG 2028 Douglas (OK)
Woods is a crafty PG with really good feel for the game. Her ability to make shots off the dribble is what makes her hard to guard offensively along with her sneaky athleticism. Would like to see her improve on her overall strength and defensively on-ball.
Woods holds offers from Missouri, Oklahoma State, Abilene Christian, Arkansas State
Has interest from:
Miami, Georgia Tech, Auburn, and more
Makayla Clarke 6’2 F 2028 Legion Prep
Clarke is a long forward with a lot of upside. She is skilled for her size and age and has grown in areas of her game. Perimeter shooting, on court strength, competitive edge. I would like to see her improve on being more assertive on the glass offensively & defensively, as well as post defense.
Clarke holds offers from Texas A&M & SMU and has interest from UTA, Texas Tech, UTSA, Wichita State.
Mariana Diaz – 6’0” Guard | Class of 2028 | Life Prep Academy
Mariana Diaz continues to impress as a standout for Life Prep Academy. At 6’0”, Diaz is a coach’s dream on the perimeter combining size, shooting touch, and basketball IQ to make life tough for opposing defenses. She showcased the ability to put the ball on the floor, create her own shot, and efficiently run the offense when needed, proving she’s a true multi-dimensional guard.
Her off-ball movement stood out constantly finding open looks and making smart cuts to free herself. Diaz’s coachability, versatility, and poise make her a player who can thrive in any system whether facilitating for teammates or creating her own opportunities. Expect Mariana Diaz to keep raising her profile she’s a name to know in the 2028 class.
