The All Star Girls Report staff has once again updated it’s recruiting class rankings for 2014, and the big mover is South Carolina. The Gamecocks jumped up to No. 2 after they signed the nation’s top prospect, A’ja Wilson.
When you add South Carolina’s superb recruiting class to an outstanding core group of veterans, the Gamecocks look like a serious Final Four contender for 2014-15.
Now in its 18th year, the All Star Girls Report is the leader in women’s basketball scouting. ASGR’s rankings are compiled by McCormick. ASGR members can log in and view the complete updated rankings at www.ASGR.info.
It should be noted that players listed with an “NR” are included in the ASGR system, but they generally fall outside the Top 600 nationally.
1. Connecticut: Gabby Williams, No. 2, 5’11 PG; Sadie Edwards, No. 6, 5’10 SG; Courtney Ekmark, No. 8, 6’0 SG; Kia Nurse, No. 14, 6-0, G.
McCormick on the Huskies: “Gabby Williams is one of the best players I’ve ever seen. She’s like Maya Moore in that she could play just about any position. She does it all on the court, and she has Olympic potential in the high jump. Sadie is a combo guard who is a great athlete. She’s tremendous off the bounce with a nice floater in the lane. She is a big time scorer, but she will involve her teammates. Courtney is a high IQ player. She is a great shooter with deep range, and she is a gym rat who has a unique understanding of the game. Courtney Ekmark will make her mark at Connecticut. Kia Nurse could play any of the guard spots. She has a smooth all-around game, and she plays hard.”
2. South Carolina: No. 1, A’ja Wilson, 6-5, F; No. 10, JaTarie White, 6-4, C; No. 41, Bianca Cuevas, 5-6, PG; No. 51, Kaydra Duckett, 5-10, SG; Doniyah Cliney, No. 98, 5’8 SG.
McCormick on the Gamecocks: “Wilson is the best player in the country because she is very talented and very versatile. There is no question that she will have a major impact at South Carolina as a freshman. JaTarie is a strong lefty who can score inside or step out to 16 feet. She will have an immediate impact in the post. Bianca has quickness, a great handle, passing skills and NBA three-point range all rolled into a game with flare. Kaydra is an explosive athlete who can score and pass.”
3. UCLA: Recee’ Caldwell, No. 7, 5-7, CG; Jordin Canada, No. 9, 5-7, PG; LaJahna Drummer, No. 12, 6-3, PF; Monique Billings, No. 17, 6-3, C; Kelli Hayes, No. 43, 6-1, SG.
McCormick on the Bruins: “UCLA had commitments from two great backcourt recruits, and then they recently added to talented frontcourt players. Canada can run the show, Caldwell is a strong combo guard, and Billings is a great athlete with a great skill set in the post. Drummer is another talented 6-3 player.”
4. Notre Dame: Brianna Turner, No. 4, 6-4, PF; Katherine Westbeld, No. 21, 6’1 PF, Mychal Johnson, No. 50, 5-8, PG.
McCormick on the Fighting Irish: “Turner gives Notre Dame yet another truly elite recruit. She is a versatile player who could fill a number of roles. Westbeld is a four-three player who is very skilled. She can rebound, she has a great feel for the game, and she will have a great career in South Bend. Johnson is a true point guard with a high basketball IQ.”
5. Duke: Sierra Calhoun, No. 13, 6-1, SG; Azura Stevens, No. 27, 6-4, PF; Lynee Belton, No. 31, 6-3, PF; Erin Mathias, No. 81, 6-3, PF.
McCormick on the Blue Devils: “Duke added three top-flight recruits. Calhoun is the headliner. She is a big, smooth scoring guard from Christ the King in New York, and she will have an immediate impact. I also think Stevens and Belton will contribute early.”
6. California: Gabby Green, No. 5, 6-2, SG; Mikayla Cowling, No. 30, 5-11, WF.
McCormick on the Golden Bears: “Green is a long, strong athlete who is a point forward type. She knows how to play the game, and she has a well-rounded game. Cowling is an explosive athlete who can score in the paint and on the perimeter. She plays hard, and she always seems to be around the ball.”
7. Louisville: Myisha Hines-Allen, No. 16, 6-2, WF; Mariya Moore, No. 22, 6-0, WF; Sydney Brackemyre, No. 39, 6-1, WF; Ariana Freeman, No. 57, 5-11, SG; Arica Carter, No. 66, 5’9 SG
McCormick on the Cardinals: “They have added a lot of size and athleticism. I think the big prize with this class is Hines-Allen. She is a wing with great size, the type of player who could be headed to the WNBA down the road. She could play the two, three or four for Louisville, and she will have an immediate impact.”
8. Ohio State: Kelsey Mitchell, No. 3, 5-8, PG; Asia Doss, No. 63, 5’6 PG, Makayla Waterman, No. 64, 6-2, PF; Alexa Hart, No. 74, 6-3, C; Chelsie Mitchell, NR, 5-10, F.
McCormick on the Buckeyes: “Kevin McGuff is in his first year as the head coach, and he struck gold quickly. All four of these kids played for the All Ohio Black AAU program. Kelsey Mitchell is the big prize. I think she will have an immediate impact for Ohio State at point guard. Asia Doss is a very athletic guard who is great off the bounce, and she can really score.”
9. Texas: Ariel Atkins, No. 11, 5-11, SG; Brooke McCarty, No. 18, 5-5, PG; Dani Akigbogun, No. 145, 5-9, SG; Tasia Foman, No. 240, 5-6, PG.
McCormick on the Longhorns: “Atkins is a lefty with a good mid-range game and the ability to post up. She took her game to a new level this summer. McCarty is a true point guard with understands the game, and she has a wonderful floater she shoots in the lane. Akigbogun is a banger who has the strength to score after contact, and she plays with a lot of energy. Foman is an intelligent point guard who works hard and plays good defense.”
10. Vanderbilt: Paris Kea, No. 38, 5-8, PG; Christa Reed, No. 42, 5-11, SG; Rachel Bell, No. 54, 5-10, PG; Khale’ann Cardon-Goudreau, No. 56, 6’3 WF; Audrey Ann Cardon-Goudreau, No. 82, 6-3, WF.
McCormick on the Commodores: “Vanderbilt already has three Top 50 level perimeter players in their class. I think this group is going to help make them a little more athletic in the future. Reed is a great shooter, Bell is a scorer, and Kea is an athlete who knows how to attack the basket. The Cardon-Goudreau twins are from Canada, and they moved down to the IMG Academy in Florida. The are both fundamentally sound athletes who play hard with inside-outside games.”
11. Tennessee: Jaime Nared, No. 25, 6’0 WF, Alexa Middleton, No. 46, 5-9, PG; Kortney Dunbar, No. 65, 6-1, WF.
McCormick on the Lady Vols: “Nared could play a number of positions on the perimeter. She can hit the three, she can post people up, and she has a mid-range game. Middleton is a Tennessee native who is very fundamental. She shoots the ball well, and she is a hard nosed competitor who knows how to win. Dunbar has unbelievable shooting range. She is a ‘maker,’ not just a shooter.”
12. Stanford: Taylor Rooks, No. 24, 6’0 WF, Brittany McPhee, No. 47, 6-0, SG; Kaylee Johnson, No. 107, 6-2, PF.
McCormick on the Cardinal: “Taylor is a multi-positional player. She is a blue collar player who goes hard, but she has a nice shot to go with her work ethic. Brittany is a four-three player who has a very high motor. She rebounds and she gets to the free throw line a lot. Kaylee has an inside-outside game. She has excellent skills and a good all-around game.”
13. Florida State: Shakayla Thomas, No. 15, 6-0, WF; No. 29 (Rutgers transfer), Shakena Richardson, 5-5, PG; No. 95, Chania Ray, 5-8, SG; No. 204 (Kentucky transfer), Meagan Conwright, 5-9, PG.
McCormick on the Seminoles: “Shakayla is just a tremendous athlete who can score in bunches. She should have a big impact immediately, and she could end up in the WNBA. Shakena is a super quick point who is a great passer. She has a wonderful handle and she knows how to direct the offense, and she can score. Chania is a great shooter with range and a lock-down defender. Meagan is a combo guard with size, and she is a smart player who can attack the basket.”
14. Virginia: No. 26, Mikayla Venson, 5-7, PG; No. 33, Aliya Huland-El, 6-1, WF; No. 70, Lauren Moses, 6-1, PF.
McCormick on the Cavaliers: “Mikayla is a point guard who will make an immediate impact with her athleticism and advanced skill set. Aliya is a great athlete with size, and she could play a number of positions. Lauren is a strong athlete who can score against contact inside. Just a tough, hard-nosed kid.”
15. Georgia: Nasheema Oliver, No. 34, 6-3, C; Mackenzie Engram, No. 36, 6-2, PF; Jasmine Carter, No. 72, 5-8, SG; Haley Clark, No. 138, 5-9, PG; Pachiyaanna Roberts, No. 173 (Syracuse Transfer), 5-11, F.
McCormick on the Bulldogs: “Oliver is a true five player. She is strong, aggressive and physical who can score against contact. Engram is a strong athlete who should flourish in Andy Landers’ system. Carter is a very aggressive player who can score in a lot of different ways. Clark is a quick player with a wonderful handle and a great feel for the game. Roberts is a good athlete who is a blue collar type that can help them in a number of ways.”
16. Kentucky: Alexis Jennings, No. 35, 6-2, PF; Alyssa Rice, No. 44, 6-3, C; Jaycee Coe, No. 195, 5-11, WF; Ivana Jakubcova, No. 15 JC, 6-6, C.
McCormick on the Wildcats: “Jennings is a versatile player who is coming off a very good summer. She can rebound, score inside and face up out to the three-point arc. Rice is a very skilled player with great footwork and the ability to finish with either hand. Rice has tremendous potential. Coe can put the ball on the floor, but she made her mark as a long range shooter. Jakubcova can score inside with her size, but she also has the skills to face up and put the ball on the floor.”
17. Maryland: No. 45, Aja Ellison, 6-3, C; No. 55, Kristen Confroy, 5-9, SG; No. 58, Kiara Leslie, 5-11, WF.

Kristen is a strong combo guard with a great feel for the game, and she can do it all. Kiara is a great athlete. She is a leaper who is strong enough to post enough, and her shooting range reaches out to the arc.”
18. Texas A&M: Khaalia Hillsman, No. 20, 6’4, C; Sh’Lonte Allen, 5-8, SG, No. 2 JC.
McCormick on the Aggies: “Khaalia is the third-ranked post player nationally in the class. She is a good athlete with great size, and she has a great drop step and other moves around the basket. She has really taken her game to another level over the past year.”
19. Oklahoma: Peyton Little, No. 24 (Texas A & M Transfer), 5-11, G; Gabrielle Ortiz, No. 29, 5-6, PG; Vionise Pierre-Louis, No. 130, 6’2 C, Cileysa Penzo, No. 188, 5-9, PG; Lanesia Williams, No. 222, 5-7, PG; McKenna Treece, 6-3, C, No. 247.
McCormick on the Sooners: “Little is a great pickup. She is a fundamental player with a high basketball IQ, and she fits the Oklahoma system. Ortiz is a strong, aggressive combo guard with three-point shooting range. I think she will have an immediate impact. Penzo is a quick, intelligent guard who passes well and has three-point range. Williams is a solid, athletic point guard.”

McCormick on the Mountaineers: “They have a commitment from Georgia (McDonald), Texas (Warren-Cox) and Florida (Simpson). McDonald is a great athlete who will fit into Mike Carey’s system. Warren-Cox is an attacking combo guard who has a good feel for the game. Simpson is coming back from a knee injury, and she has a good skill set and three-point range. Montgomery will give a true low post player who can run the floor. Abigail is a native of Sweden, and she is very athletic with a high motor. She is a great rebounder and she runs well. King is a long athlete who likes to face up to the basket. Morton is a long, athletic scorer who is aggressive attacking the rim, and she has a nice mid-range game.”
21. Georgia Tech: Zaire O’Neil, No. 32, 6-0, PF; Imani Tilford, No. 59, 5-7, PG; Erin Garner, No. 149, 6-4, PF; Simian Avram, 6-3, C, Euro recruit.
McCormick on the Yellow Jackets: “They have picked up three commitments from the Northeast already. O’Neil is their top recruit. She is a 6-0 lefty. She has a very strong body, and an inside-outside game. Tilford is a very explosive point guard who is a scoring machine. Garner is strong and she has good footwork, and she has tremendous potential.”
22. Michigan State: Jasmine Lumpkin, No. 28, 6-0, WF; Alexis Gussert, No. 60, 6-0, WF; Kennedy Johnson, No. 232, 6-2, C.

McCormick on the Wolverines: “Michigan has added a 1, 2, 3 and 4. Flaherty is a skilled, tough player who just loves the game. Jackson is a good athlete with a strong body. She works hard and she does all the little things. Dunston is a big guard who can score, and Backman is a wing with great size. Stapleton will give them a strong low block presence, and she has a chance to really excel if she can stay healthy.”
24. USC: McKenzie Calvert, No. 37, 5’9 PG; Alexis Lloyd, No. 50 (Virginia Tech Transfer), 5-9, G; No. 53, 6’2, PF, Kristen Simon; Chyanne Butler, No. 94, 5-5, PG; Amy Okonkow, No. 103, 6-1, PF.
McCormick on the Trojans: “Lloyd is a wing who was a Top 50 recruit coming out of high school. Calvert is an explosive, attacking, scoring guard. She can pass it, but she is more of a scorer. Butler is a very skilled player with deep three-point range, and she knows the game. Okonkwo is a big strong player who has the ability to step outside. I think she is something of a sleeper prospect.”
25. Mississippi State: No. 40, Victoria Vivians, 6-1, WF; No. 100, La’Karis Salter, 6’0 PF, No. 167, Kayla Nevitt, 5-8, SG; No. 243, Morgan William, 5-5, PG; No. 491, Blair Schaefer, 5-8, SG.
McCormick on the Bulldogs: “Victoria is a high-profile in-state recruit. She is a tremendous athlete who has been a prolific scorer. She could be bound for the WNBA down the road. La’Karis is a very strong, athletic body, somewhat like Danielle Adams from Texas A&M. Just like Adams, she does have the ability to be effective when she steps outside. Kayla is a wiry, athlete combo guard who knows how to attack the rim. Morgan an explosive athlete with a very high basketball IQ, and she is creative on the offensive end. Blair is (head coach) Vic’s daughter, and she is an intelligent, hard-nosed player who does it all well.”

McCormick on the Demon Deacons: “Wake Forest had a tremendous summer. This is their best class is a long time. Campbell is a very athletic leaper who can score and run the point. Floyd is another explosive athlete. She is also physical and she knows how to seal and score down low, and she is a shot blocker. Gordon is an athletic slasher who knows the game, and she has good shooting range.”
28. Washington: Macy Keen, No. 13 JC, 6-5, C; Kelli Kingma, No. 68, 5-9, PG; Hannah Johnson, No. 107, 6-1, WF; Khalia Lark, 5-11, WF, No. 313.

Kingma; who will be following in the footsteps of her sister, Kristi, at Washington; has a high basketball IQ and a very good skill set.

McCormick on the Hurricanes: “Ashley is strong, left-handed athlete with an inside-outside game. She could play the three or four. Erykah is a another strong athlete. She is an active, physical post player. Aisha is a combo guard who can score the ball. She is the type of player who can get on a roll and become almost unstoppable. Khalia had an excellent summer.

McCormick on the Cornhuskers: “Romeo is a perfect fit for Nebraska. She is very skilled and very fundamental, but she hurt her knee in July. Smith is another fundamentally sound player who will help on the perimeter. Page is an inside-outside forward who knows the game and plays hard. Washington is a good athlete who is more of a strong banger who scores inside. Cincore is a good, strong athlete who is something of a sleeper.”

Quanetria is a strong athlete who is an aggressive rebounder. She can also step out, so she could play the four or five. Hannah is a two-three player with a very high basketball IQ and a tremendous all-around skill set. Meoshanti is an athletic lefty who can slash to the basket, and she can pull up with a jumper.”

They call Alexander ‘Sox,’ and she is an athletic, strong point guard who can really score off the dribble. Tonoia is an athletic wing with good size, and she is an excellent three-point shooter. Crystal is an international combo guard who is long and athletic. She is a lefty with a high basketball IQ, and she could play any of the guard positions.”

McCormick on the Golden Eagles: “Bell and Elbert are from the same AAU program in Minnesota. Bell is an explosive athlete who can handle the ball and pass well. Elbert is a very athletic true point guard. Valentine is something of a sleeper prospect out of Canada. She is a great athlete, and I think she will surprise some people. Grim is a true point guard with a feel for the game, and she knows how to involve everyone.”

She has a strong mid-range game, and she can attack the rim. Cherice is a quick, skilled combo guard. Chy has good size and solid skills.”
40. Iowa State: Emily Durr, No. 118, 6-0, WF; Nakiah Bell, No. 152, 5-4, PG; Claire Ricketts, No. 169, 6-3, C; Bryanna Fernstrom, No. 181, 6-5, C; Blaire Thomas, No. 294, 5-11, WF.
McCormick on the Cyclones: “This gives them five strong players. Durr is a good fit for the program because she is a wing with size and shooting range. Bell is a lightning quick point guard that can run the offense, and she has deep three range. Ricketts is an active center who can step outside, where as Fernstrom is more of a true post player with very good footwork. Thomas is an athletic, blue collar wing who does all the little things.”

McCormick on the Musketeers: “This is a very good class with three players who will help lift the program as they move to the Big East. Turner and Fincher are midwest kids who are a good fit for the program. Turner should have an immediate impact, and Fincher is an effective shooter. Partlow is a local get who is a beast on the inside. Bird is a strong athlete who can leap. She can attack with her athleticism, and she has a nice pull-up jumper.”
43. Minnesota: Carlie Wagner, No. 57, 5-9, PG; Tory Jacobs, No. 164, 5-10, SG; Grace Coughlin, No. 212, 5-8, PG; Rangie Bessard, No. 287, 6-0, PF; Josie Buckingham, No. 404, 6-5, C.

Coughlin is a local product who is a true point guard with excellent fundamentals and a high basketball IQ. Bessard will give them an athletic presence down low. Buckingham really evolved over the summer. She is a very long player and a great shot blocker in the paint.
