Team: Manasquan
Year: Junior
Stats: 11 points and 6 rebounds per game
Accolades: 3rd Team All-State as a Sophomore
Projection: 1st Team All-State
Why they’re on the list: The Manasquan Mauler is a force in the paint, combining grace and power in every move she unleashes on her opponents.Faith is also a great passer, dishing out close to 3 assists per game. After logging 817 points in her first two seasons, Faith is on pace to break 1,500 for her career. With All-State guard Stella Clark graduating, FM will see a healthy uptick in her usage rate. The extra shots will allow recruiters to observe her wide array of moves in the paint and perimeter.
Masonius has a lot of valuable tools at her disposal which allow her to take her game to an elite level. Faith is surrounded by steady guard play. Their ability to hit shots keep teams honest and allows her plenty of room to create on offense. With a former NJ.Com Coach of the Year dialing up plays, Masonius is going to put up numerous gaudy stat lines with ease.
The key to Manasquan bringing home the T.O.C. crown this year is to have a bit more Faith.
