TEAM 1


Damaria Colburn
2028 5-8 G Damaria Colburn – Gainesville – OU Legends
Late addition to camp was able to use her body to score through contact downhill. Liked to seek out defenders and go into their chests to score at the rim. Provided toughness and hit some shots from the perimeter throughout the day.

Julia Payne
2025 5-8 G Julia Payne – Gainesville
Caught the attention of colleges in the building as a new face to track. Liked to take pull-up jumpers off screens. Goes behind the back with fluidity. Has room to improve her left hand. Scored with her jump shot but also converted some tough baskets off the bounce.

Ava Roberson
2026 6-1 C Ava Roberson – Dawson County – Redline
Did a good job sealing for deep post position and finishing with both hands. Has quality back to the basket moves which will continue to improve with quicker feet. Uses her size to wall up defensively. Ran the floor well. Will see big minutes as a junior in the Dawson County frontcourt.

Loren Mazarky2026 5-4 G Loren Mazarky – Rabun County – Team All In
Shooter knocked down outside shots. Used a compact repeatable stroke. Has the strength to post up smaller guards. Will see her game grow as her creativity with the ball improves. Footspeed is getting better and better.

Alayna Lindley
2026 5-6 G Alayna Lindley – Lumpkin County – PeAk
Made her presence felt as a floor spacer. Hit shots from the mid-range on pull-ups and also showcased range with her three-point shot. Has active hands on defense, poking away steals. Played with confidence.

Reagan Richardson
2027 6-0 F Reagan Richardson – Lumpkin County – PeAk
Has good size. Strong frame. Is able to anchor herself on the block and turn to a variety of post moves. Shows a target hand for lob passes when sealing inside. Was able to get to a scooping shot with her back to the basket, able to sneak it underneath the defender’s reach.

Dru Jeckewicz
2027 5-6 G Dru Jeckewicz – Midtown – Hoop Atlanta
I came away extremely impressed with Dru Jeckewicz, one of camp’s biggest stock risers. The rising sophomore is athletic and active. She is a playmaker that can attack off the dribble and find the open man by leaping in the air to deliver accurate passes. Dru fed her post players with one-handed entry feeds, showcasing the ability to use her off-hand to split the defense. Jeckewicz knocked down a handful of shots over camp and used her speed to force turnovers and score downhill. Dru feels like a missing piece for the Class 5A State Runner-Up. I like the agile guard’s upside.

Adelyn Thompson
2027 5-5 G Adelyn Thompson – Rabun County – FBC Dream Team Elite
Made a living with her three-point shot. Found a home in the corners and was able to bury threes when given space. Got to her one-dribble pull-up in the mid-range and also made an impact with her floater in traffic. Possesses the ability to fill it up from the perimeter. Has put in the work to play with confidence. Should enjoy a breakout season at Rabun County as a primary scoring option.

Jatiana Chambers2025 5-3 PG Jatiana Chambers – Dougherty – CAM Sports
True playmaker that looks to set up teammates. Sees the floor extremely well and can fit in tough passes through tight areas. On the smaller size, Chambers has the physical strength to not get pushed around but has to make sure she doesn’t get too deep into the defense where length can swallow her up. Consistency as a jump shooter and shoring up her left hand will help her reach her ceiling. One of South Georgia’s very best guards and one of the top passers in the state.

TEAM 2

Sofia McNabb
2024 6-0 F Sofia McNabb – Rabun Gap – BCB
It’s hard to believe Sofia McNabb is still unsigned. McNabb was one of the most complete players at camp. She is a true mismatch at 6-foot tall. The forward handles the ball like a guard, able to grab rebounds and go coast-to-coast. Sofia is a physical rebounder that secures boards in traffic and can power up to finish with either hand through contact. McNabb’s versatility is highlighted with her athleticism and three-level scoring capabilities. Sofia can pull-up from beyond the arc and get downhill. She hustled on defense, coming from behind to breakup scoring opportunities. The multi-sport athlete has the physical tools, athleticism and skills to draw attention from all levels. Her signing will be a major boon for any program.

Eva Bishop
2025 5-10 PF Eva Bishop – Dawson County – Georgia Flames
Scored out of the pick-and-roll. Extremely strong post presence can bury defenders underneath the basket when sealing.  Finishes with both hands inside and knocked down jumpers from the high post. Tough-nosed rebounder. Improving her stamina and quickening her footwork will bode well for the future. Great student boasts a 4.26 GPA. D-II and D-III programs will be involved.

Maddie Siuta
2026 5-10 G Maddie Siuta – Dawson County – Redline
Big guard has the ability to go coast-to-coast and finish with either hand. Can play 1-4 and be used in a variety of ways to create mismatches. Tough to guard when her three-point shot is dropping. Uses her height well to see the floor and find the open man. Holds value as a switchable defender. First step explosion to the basket can elevate her consistency as a downhill driver.

Parker Whipple2026 5-7 G Parker Whipple – Lambert – Redline
High energy guard defends the ball very well with lateral quickness, able to limit straight-line drives. Does well at getting past her first defender and getting to the hoop where she can score through fouls. Outside shot is continuing to improve. Effort on the glass does not go unnoticed. Maintains a 4.1 GPA.

Ellison Steinhauer2026 5-9 G Ellison Steinhauer – Pickens – Southeast All-Stars
Smooth do-everything guard. Great footwork and high IQ. Knocks down threes and excels at getting to her spots in the mid-range. Crafty finisher uses long strides and her length to finish with both hands at the rim. Wiry, but has functional strength to absorb contact for And-1s. Disruptive defender. D-I level guard that will likely see some traction with her recruitment in short time.

Lily Denlein
2027 5-7 G Lily Denlein – Milton
Stood out as a catch-and-shoot three-point marksman. Understood spacing. Will be able to impact games in other ways as her off the dribble game grows with experience which will lead to even more confidence.

Alaya Wilson
2027 5-3 G Alaya Wilson – Archer – Lady Flames
Quick guard picked up the tempo with her speed. Had success as a penetrator that drew fouls downhill. Has the upside to become a consistent scorer as her motor continues to strengthen.

Audrey Lunsford
2027 5-9 G Audrey Lunsford – Elbert County – Winners United
Big guard that can play with a bit of a mean streak. Physical off the dribble when getting to the hoop. Can bump off smaller defenders and scores through contact. Has a pretty outside shot to pair with her tight handle. Mixed it up on the glass and blocked away shots. Looks like a future stat sheet stuffer that will go on to play in college.

Annaka Hembree
2028 5-7 G Annaka Hembree – Christian Heritage – Southern Starz 2028 Hembree
Coach’s daughter will make an immediate impact as a freshman. Will need to get stronger over the course of her career, but the agile guard is a smooth three-point shooter that can also attack off the dribble. Was calm with the ball in her hands. Saw the floor well as a drive-and-kick creator.

Maecee Crumley
2028 5-10 W Maecee Crumley – Stephens County – Georgia Generals
Good size on the perimeter. Shoots the ball well. Knocked down threes, mid-range jumpers and scored along the baseline from 15-feet. As camp wore on, Maecee became more comfortable with the pace of play. Grabbed rebounds and pushed the ball in transition. When the ball wasn’t in her hands, Crumley cut to open spaces. The long-armed shooter will provide versatility with the ability to play and defend multiple positions.

TEAM 3 

Avery Huffman
2025 5-5 G Avery Huffman – Denmark – Redline
Known for her three-point shooting, Huffman stood out with other aspects of her game. She did a nice job attacking the hoop in coast-to-coast scenarios. Avery ran the floor for easy baskets and displayed court vision to pair with her improved handle. Huffman played with pace and got after it defensively as a physical on-ball defender.

Annarose Tyre
2025 5-8 G Annarose Tyre – Lambert – Georgia Flames
Tyre emerged as one of camp’s top performers. The high energy guard did a little bit of everything on both ends of the floor. She set up teammates with her drive-and-kick penetration. Tyre sparked fastbreaks not only as a playmaker with the ball but by outlet passing to streaking teammates to get ahead of the defense. Annarose canned threes throughout the day and scored with both hands on her slices to the rim. Hard-playing guard also forced turnovers with her persistent pesky defense, often times defending other team’s best players. D-II, D-III and NAIA programs will do their due diligence on the rising senior throughout the summer.

Jessalyn Tamplin2025 5-8 G Jessalyn Tamplin – Flowery Branch – EOTO FBC
Lefty can play 2-4 depending on the lineup. Has good physical size. Was able to clear rebounds and advance the ball up the floor. Was at her best as a spot up shooter. Hustled on defense and consistently made the extra pass on offense.

Tamera Rudolph
2026 5-6 G Tamera Rudolph – Grayson – FBC Legacy
Tammy had a great camp. Often overshadowed at Grayson, Rudolph would have been a starter on almost any other team in the state and has a bright future ahead. Tamera plays very hard and doesn’t go through the motions or play it too cool. She is an active on-ball defender that hustles and gets on the floor. Rudolph has a smooth release on her jump shot and is a dangerous three-point shooter. Tammy ran the floor for easy buckets and showcased the ability to initiate offense in transition, both as a playmaker and as a scorer, able to finish with her left hand. Rudolph is a well-rounded prospect that will get better and better with more experience. Don’t sleep on her.

Caroline Young
2026 5-11 W Caroline Young – Milton – ATL Bucks
The long and lanky swingman was all over the floor, crashing in for rebounds, running in transition and defending multiple positions. Young attacked from all levels, shooting the three, attacking off the dribble and utilizing a floater in the paint. Her athleticism and activity make her an impactful rebounder. Continuing to get stronger will help her finish through contact. Young played off two feet inside. Caroline’s diverse inside-out game will only expand.

Tori Epps
2026 5-9 W Tori Epps – Heritage-Catoosa – Thunder Basketball
Scrappy hustler let her defense spark her offense. Got more aggressive as the day went on. Used a spin move to get to the hoop. Spent time as a lead guard, bringing the ball up the floor. Had confidence shooting the pull-up three. Rebounded well from her guard position.

Libby Knott
2027 5-9 W Libby Knott – Atlanta Girls School – Hoop Atlanta
Did a good job cutting without the ball and also finding cutters as a passer. Good size on the perimeter with the ability to play multiple positions. Defended inside and out and competed for 50/50 balls. Attacked defenses off the dribble and with her jump shot.

Deyva Davis
2027 5-8 G Deyva Davis – Milton
The quick lightning bolt of a guard played within herself. She used her energy to turn over opponents and rotated over to block shots from behind. Davis hit some threes and utilized her speed to penetrate. Adding more strength to her wiry frame will help. She will continue to improve with more game reps against stiff competition.

Makayla Watts2027 5-6 G Makayla Watts – Lamar County – H2O
Made the most out of camp. Athletic guard plays bigger than her height. Did a great job getting rebounding position, blocking out bigger opponents to secure boards. Earned her team second chance opportunities. Possesses long arms and a quick first step. Effective defender has a nose for deflections and steals.

Kerris Collins
2028 5-9 G Kerris Collins – Marietta – S.H.E.
Big guard made a difference as a rebounder. Shot the ball from distance and the mid-range. Plays at her own speed. Has a chance to get quicker over the course of her career. Handles the ball well and fits in at the varsity level with her physicality.

Impacts games on both ends of the floor.

Lyla Griffith
2026 5-8 W Lyla Griffith – Cherokee – Redline
Hustler does the dirty work but also can pack a punch on offense. Digs down on the post for steals. Physical rebounder embraces contact. Was able to grab rebounds and go coast-to-coast.

Was able to finish around the rim with drop steps and was active in the paint scoring from 5-feet. Best basketball is ahead of her.

Trinity Grant
2026 6-4 C Trinity Grant – Eagle’s Landing – Southeast All-Stars
Elite size. Vacuums up rebounds. Must keep the ball high when securing boards and going up for putbacks. Showed promise with her drop step in the paint. Starting to get more comfortable performing post moves with pesky guards swarming her. Quickening her footwork will allow her to make moves before double teams come. Is an intimidating rim protector that alters shots even when she doesn’t block them. Has a promising future as a double-double machine.

Kelsey Arp

Karlee Law
2027 5-7 W Karlee Law – Jefferson – FBC Dream Team Elite
Southpaw had a huge day, one of camp’s more impressive stock risers. Such a diverse and unique skill set. Big, strong guard that can do damage inside and out. At first glance looks like more of a forward, but is a true perimeter player with how well she attacks off the dribble and her overall speed with the ball. Powerful getting downhill with a bowling ball mentality that overwhelms opponents with her strength. Never gets knocked off her line. Impressive playmaker that whips in one-handed missiles to shooters in the corners. Is a mismatch with her ability to go into the post to score against smaller defenders and will torch bigger defenders that try to guard her on the perimeter. Utilizing her right hand will make her even tougher to stop. Defensively, Law is strong enough to hold her own when guarding posts and is quick enough to hinder most guards. She took pride in guarding other teams’ best players.

Allie Holden
2028 5-5 G Allie Holden – North Hall – Redline

2025 5-8 G Jesstynie Scott – Sumter County – Porter Sports
The top overall prospect in camp with a handful of D-I offers already to her name, Jesstynie Scott did not disappoint. Her athleticism and quickness with the ball were unparallelled. Scott got wherever she wanted to go without having to force things. Her quick first step and ability to see the floor resulted in buckets for herself and teammates. Scott dropped in soft touch passes to her posts and thrived as a drive-and-kick creator who pushed the tempo throughout camp. Jess netted mid-range pull-ups and got to the rim. While the ball was often always in her hands, when it wasn’t, Scott remained active as a cutter. Her impact extended to the defensive side of the ball, setting the tone as an aggressive on-ball defender that forced turnovers. Scott showed what a top guard in Georgia looks like.

Allie Duke
2025 5-11 W Allie Duke – Calhoun – ATL Bucks
Knockdown three-point shooter was able to space the floor, especially from the corners. Scored out of the pick-and-roll and is the perfect player for pick-and-pops. Has the ability to go into the post for tough buckets. Guard skills and agility have improved every season. Continuing to diversify her game off the bounce will make her even more dangerous on offense. Can be utilized as a 4 or a 5 in small-ball lineups thanks to versatile size and ability to rebound. Intriguing prospect for schools to track her senior season.

Showcased a variety of overall moves with her back to the basket. Had a strong drop step that cleared out space using her elbows and quick feet to maneuver around defenders.

Controls the tempo, understanding when to push the pace and when to slow down. Three-level scorer found buckets from beyond the arc and in the mid-range off the dribble. Competed hard the entire day and set the tone for her team, leading by example. Good island defender closing out with a high hand, quick enough to move her feet and wall up without fouling using her length to contest shots. D-I and D-II programs are tracking the rising junior.

2027 5-8 G Taylor Clark – Lakeview Academy – DTE All In
Picks up full court and harasses ball handlers, extremely effective when she’s able to move her feet and not foul. Lefty has great quickness sideline to sideline, able to cut off and turn her man multiple times before advancing to the frontcourt. Feasts on live-ball turnovers, converting them to layups. Has improved her right hand, now able to finish downhill through contact. As the range on her outside shot grows, as will her stock. Not many players play harder –especially on defense – than Clark does.

Ali Jae Bull
2028 5-5 G Ali Jae Bull – Chestatee – Redline
Tough-nosed youngster crashes in for rebounds and has the speed and handle to go coast-to-coast through traffic. Earned high marks for her IQ as one of the youngest players in camp. Knocked down some perimeter shots and didn’t back down from any defensive challenges.

Store Banner

The Sandy’ Spiel Spring Showcase sold out for a second consecutive year, hosting 80 prospects from all across the state of Georgia who were looking to improve their game and boost their exposure before diving into travel ball. Schools from multiple levels were in attendance as NAIA, D-III and D-II programs traveled to Chestatee High School to evaluate prospective student-athletes. With the help of our established eight-coach staff, here are our player evaluations sorted by team.

TEAM 1

Lucy Hood2024 5-9 PG Lucy Hood – Rabun County – Southeast All-Stars
First Team All-State playmaker looked to facilitate throughout camp. Deferred for most of the day but picked up her offense as camp wore on. Is a talented drive-and-kick passer. Can play both guard spots. Has an accurate jump shot with three-point range. Improved this year as a downhill scorer. Has room to become even more of an aggressive driver, but has to be careful not to push off and over extend her off arm against tight ball pressure. Has developed into a strong on-ball defender with quick hands. Pokes away steals. Needs to make sure she doesn’t get too overly aggressive and pick up silly fouls far away from the hoop. Earned her first D-I offer from Western Carolina last month.

Jenai Mumphery2027 5-6 G Jenai Mumphery – Tri-Cities – NSG Wolfpack
Was mightily impressive as one of camp’s youngest players. Rising freshman quickly turned heads with her three-point shot. Lefty has great form on her jumper and buried multiple threes throughout the day. Did the little things well, like jab-stepping immediately on the catch to freeze her defender for a split second to gain extra inches of space before firing. Runs the floor well and isn’t afraid to put the ball down and get to the rack. Quick ball handler will continue to improve as she gets stronger. Could make a significant impact at the varsity level from Day 1.

Trinity Hill2023 5-5 G Trinity Hill – Tift County – Porter Sports
Sticky on-ball defender. Doesn’t bite on head fakes or combo dribbles. Defensive-minded stopper. Has room for refinement offensively when it comes to making plays off the dribble and shooting from the perimeter. Active player on both ends of the floor.

Madison McLane2024 5-9 SG Madison McLane – Hart County
Sharpshooting swingman can play either the 2 or 3. Could serve as a small-ball stretch-four in spurts. Understands where she is best at offensively as a floor spacer, but can occasionally sneak in for offensive rebounds and points in the paint. Providing physicality when she’s around the basket will help her expand her value.

Riley Simmons2024 6-0 F Riley Simmons – Cherokee – Wood Elite
As she did last year, Riley Simmons scorched the nets again from the opening moments of camp, immediately sinking a three in her first game which was a sign of things to come. Knockdown shooter is a premier stretch-four. Hit multiple threes throughout camp and played with great confidence. Once she opened up the defense she was able to showcase her improved off the bounce game, getting to the rim using spin moves. Did a good job getting on the offensive glass and finishing in traffic. Three-level scorer is a major mismatch offensively. D-II programs should start getting involved. Could be a significant stock-riser this offseason with a productive year of travel ball.

Breelyn Wood2025 5-8 W Breelyn Wood – Tallulah Falls – SBC
Versatile combo-forward that can play both on the wing and on the block. Athletic build with long arms. Capable of defending multiple positions in the frontcourt.

Provides infectious energy with how she moves laterally as an on-ball defender. High character vocal leader. Plays with joy and excitement. Has really found her identity over the past 12 month.

Emma Lightsey2025 5-5 PG Emma Lightsey – White County – Peak Performance
Good three-point shooter that can score in bunches once her first shot drops. Pushed the ball up the floor with improved speed. Continuing to improve as a creator, both as a facilitator and downhill driver will broaden her offense. A consistent floater will be a great weapon.

Good player to keep an eye on over the next three years.

Kalynn Watkins2027 5-8 W Kalynn Watkins – White County – L.E. Elite
Doesn’t have the length of her sister but is an interesting long-term prospect. Started to get comfortable once she adjusted to the pace of camp.

Was a good team player that was responsive to coaching. Scored in the post.

Dominated at camp last year and did so again this go-round. Long guard cuts up defenses as a scorer and facilitator. Smooth downhill with effortless handle. Crossover leaves defenders in the dust and will eurostep through traffic and finish through contact. Shifty playmaker scores with both hands. Sees the floor in transition. Really loads up on her three-point jump shot with deep knee bend and wide base. Great length helps her swallow up smaller guards and shut down passing lanes. Holds an offer from Anderson.

Physical post presence. Understands how to use her body. Seals hard and has good footwork. Drop step can clear out space. Should draw a ton of fouls over the course of her career.

Has room to grow as an off-ball scorer; moving without the ball will help her find more open spaces in the defense. Multiple camp coaches highlighted Siuta as one of their top stock-risers from Sunday.

Kayla Wilkins2026 5-8 F Kayla Wilkins – Athens Academy – Classic City Ballers
Made her presence felt on the offensive glass. Young forward plays much bigger than her size. Uses her body well when positioning herself for garbage points.

Syriana Childers2028 5-2 G Syriana Childers – Parkview – Queens of Basketball
Camp was a valuable experience for Syriana, one of the smallest and youngest players in attendance. Seeing the speed of the game will only benefit her in the future. The rising eighth grader got good reps against aggressive on-ball defense. Childers didn’t try to do too much and provided effort on defense and ball movement on offense.

TEAM 5

Denver Arnold2023 5-7 PG Denver Arnold – Valdosta – Porter Sports
One of just a few unsigned seniors in camp, Denver Arnold was great. She provided uncomfortable on-ball pressure defense and was tough to guard on offense. Arnold lit it up with her three-point shot, hitting jumpers off the dribble and with great consistency. She was among the very best shooters in camp. When she got downhill, Arnold was a smart decision maker as she found the open man. Coming all the way up from Valdosta, Denver was one of camp’s brightest standouts. She holds an offer from Henry Ford College. Arnold would be a great late pick up for NAIA/D-III/JUCOs.

One of the best kept secrets in Georgia. Made a statement last year at camp and was outstanding again this year. Truly elite shot blocker. Gobbles up everything that comes her way and blocks shots without having to jump. High-level rebounder is a vacuum inside. Defensive ace is a load on offense as well. Stepped outside to hit the mid-range jumper and corner three. Strong with her back to the basket. Uses an under control drop step and also implements a crisp up-and-under. Pelote once again drew rave reviews as being polite and coachable. Holds a 3.5 GPA. Pelote is a slam dunk at the D-II level. While she is a solid post scorer, if for some reason her offensive game doesn’t translate to college, her floor is still so high with how elite of a rim protector she is. If she continues to improve, there is no reason why Pelote can’t develop into a double-double machine in college and be near the top of the conference in blocked shots. Buy stock now.

Emeri Billings2025 5-3 PG Emeri Billings – Jefferson – L.E. Elite
A full-year of starting at the varsity level has done Billings good. Looks much more confident against pressure. Continuing to cut down on her turnovers as her decision making improves. Comfortable leading a team. Fit in tight passes to streaking teammates. Supplied pesky on-ball defense and ran the floor in transition.

Amelia Brown2025 5-7 SG Amelia Brown – South Forsyth – Georgia Flames

Kayla Cleaveland2025 6-0 F Kayla Cleaveland – River Ridge – Southeast All-Stars
All-State, State Champion and now a certified D-I prospect with an offer from Georgia Southern, it was a breakout sophomore season for Kayla Cleaveland. Stock-riser.

Played with pace as she got the rim in transition. Three-level scorer and burgeoning playmaker. Has a chance to enjoy a breakout sophomore season and emerge as one of the 2026 class’s most well-rounded scorers. 4.2 GPA student may force her way onto college radars sooner than expected.

Francesca Jones2026 5-4 G Francesca Jones – Veterans
Long and athletic for her size. Takes the mid-range jumper and can get to the rim. Has the tools to become a reliable defender in due time. Was a good teammate that was receptive to coaching.

Was one of Georgia’s more impactful freshmen this season.

Active forward ran the floor hard and got on the glass. Kept rebounds high as she converted putbacks. Liked to take turnaround jumpers out of the post. Plays hard and is selfless teammate. Strong communicator. Has tools to work with over the next three years.

Marlene Mbilima2026 6-3 C Marlene Mbilima – Athens Christian
Congo-native is still learning the game and adapting to the speed. Flashes an extremely high upside. Elite length and mobility. Alters shots inside and rebounds at a high level. Shows quality footwork in the low post and is getting more consistent with her moves. Plays with balance, not frail toward contact. Had a nice spin move into a short-range jumper. Tried to showcase her outside shot, taking multiple mid-range jumpers and even a three. Not quite a weapon just yet, but she did sink a baseline jumper with good form. With constant work over the next three years, Marlene has a chance to blossom into one of the state’s better bigs. College ball is in her future.

Was overmatched in terms of size, but the tiny guard brought great effort and energy. Hustled the entirety of camp. Worked on ball skills in station work and implemented what she learned in our game setting. Had a positive attitude throughout camp and was a good teammate.

Has raw skill that will continue to improve as she gets more reps. Nice athleticism from the guard position. Was able to get in on the action defensively. Fit in well on the perimeter. Very coachable.

Lydia Robillard2030 5-5 G Lydia Robillard – Decatur – Queens of Basketball
The youngest player in camp, Lydia got invaluable court time playing with and against some of the top high school players in the state. Robillard is a long-term project, but she already has long arms and projects to be an impactful defender. As she gets more comfortable playing with older girls, her aggressiveness will increase. Lydia Robillard is a name we may be hearing a lot of over the next seven years.
