On the girls side of the camp which was held July 1-2 at Georgetown College (KY), 6-3 senior Shelbi Chandler out of Indianapolis Pike, IN was tabbed the MVP for the High Potential Basketball Showcase Mini Camp. Chandler recently committed to the University of Cincinnati. Two players shared the camp’s Runner-Up MVP-5-11 junior Aareon Smith (Louisville Butler, KY) and 5-9 junior Makayla Williams (Raleigh Wakefield, NC). Smith was also selected the camp’s Top Underclassman. Other impressive upper class players were:
Ivy Brown 6-0/So Hodgenville LaRue Co., KY
Nakhyla Powell 5-8/Sr Dubuque Senior, IA
Caroline Smith 5-8/Sr Cleveland Bradley Central, TN
Jazmine Smith 5-6/Sr Indianapolis Pike, IN
Katelyn Smith 5-9/Sr Hazard Perry Co. Central, KY
Three rising stars who stood out were 6-0 eighth grader Justus Martin (Shelbyville Shelby Co., KY), 6-1 freshman Morgan Turner (Brandenburg Meade Co., KY) and 5-9 seventh grader Myah Pace (Shelbyville Shelby West Middle School, KY). 150 players were in attendance from over a dozen states for this camp.
_________________________________________________________________
There were so many girls that impressed at this year’s camp. Many were honored with all star selections and/or other awards. However many others impressed with their skill, attitude, and work ethic. It is virtually impossible to mention everyone but here are a few that made an impression on me.
Megan Ausdran 5-11 12th Chattanooga Baylor, TN Megan impressed with her defensive intensity which allowed her to effectively defend larger girls in the paint. She also has the ability to score off her jump shot. Megan works hard and understands the game.
Taylor Mynear 5-9 12th Lexington Lafayette, KY Solid player who does a little bit of everything. Taylor has range on her shot and will battle in the paint.
Tiffany Berryman 5-3 7th San Ramon Pine Valley M.S., CA Scores both off the drive and with her jump shot and is very coachable.
Anovia Byars 5-8 8th Paris Paris, KY Anovia has a big upside and plays a very tough summer schedule which will serve her well in the future.
Mikkah Hignite 5-7 11th Warsaw Gallatin County, KY Solid player who makes people around her better.
Krystaline McCune 6-3 8th Louisville Ramsey M.S., KY Young with great size and has ability to be special.
Natalie Collins 5-8 7th Louisville Ramsey M.S., KY Another young player who plays tough summer schedule and has a bright future.
Alexis McFarland 5-0 11th Sellersburg Silver Creek, IN Don’t let her size fool you. She has a big heart and is a competitor.
Lexee Wilson 5-8 12th Munfordville Hart County, KY Lexee is a hard worker who has steadily improved and is a competitor.
Alexis Brewer 5-10 9th Hodgenville LaRue County, KY Alexis was in attendance but unable to play due to a back injury. One of the top young players in the state. Alexis has a high revving motor and will return from her injury with a vengence.
Katie Douglas 5-9 11th Liberty Casey County, KY Katie is coming back from an injury but has the skills, determination, and work ethic to have a good season this year.
There was a good mixture of veterans and young talent at this camp and while talent impresses I was more impressed with the players work ethic, attitude, and eagerness to learn and improve their game.

Although she is moving from Shelbyville to Indiana, Myah Pace is probably a name that you'll hear again in a few years. I watched her play last year at Shelby West Middle School on an 8th grade team that lost 3 games all year and I watched her play point on the Collins varsity team as a 6th grader. I was very impressed by her play. She is very quick and athletic and can handle the ball very well and shoot the ball very well. She has tons of potential and I would not be surprised at all to see her play Division 1.
Also, I was glad to see that 8th grader to be Justus Martin from Shelby County did very well. She was the leading scorer and rebounder last year for Shelby County and made the All-District team after scoring 17 points and grabbing 17 rebounds in the first round of the district tournament. She is very long and athletic and has great potential. If she keeps working, she could be a really good player.
I was glad to see junior to be Aaliyah Wells make the All-Star Roster. She is probably the most athletic player in the 8th region. She averaged 11 points and 11 rebounds a game as a freshman and those numbers were probably higher last year. She is very quick and has a great shot. She is a very clutch player and as a freshman at Shelby County she made two free throws with 1 second left in overtime to beat South Oldham 42-41. She is an excellent rebounder, especially for somebody her size. If I'm not mistaken as a freshman she had 23 rebounds against Oldham County. I think that if she keeps working on her game she could become a great player.
