Trio to Watch

The Archer trio of Jayden Jenks, Savannah Robinson-Holmes, and Jayden Watts has a ton of potential. These three were incredibly fun to watch. Jenks and Robinson-Holmes are quick, crafty guards that already have the ability to score from different spots and create off of the dribble. Watts also has the ability to create for herself off of the dribble. Her size and ability to finish through contact makes her tough to defend in the paint. All three of these girls are prospects to keep an eye on as they move to the high school ranks.
