Who are some of the toughest competitors you’ve faced out here?
I’d say the toughest would be Breanna Stewart, she’s really good, A’Ja Wilson and Bashaara Graves. They’re the toughest because they have strength. The conferences they’re from, their posts are big. But the conference I’m from, the posts are slim and kind of quick. So, I think that’s my biggest competition. But otherwise, if they use their strength, I’ll use my quickness.

Who do you think the toughest person is to face out here?
For guards, for sure Moriah Jefferson. She has it all.

Stephanie Mavunga, Brownsburg H.S. (Ind.)
Who is the toughest player you’ve faced this weekend?
I’ll give you three. I would say Bre Stewart (Connecticut), A’Ja Wilson (Heathwood Hall H.S., S.C.) and Candice Agee (Penn State), just because they’re so long. Being in the post, coming from another state, you’re so used to dominating other people. They’re so much smaller than you. So, you really have to take the time to make your post moves, make the quick moves. You really have to think about what you need to do. Sometimes you get a little bit frustrated when you get your shot blocked, and you’re not used to that. Bre’s a phenomenal player. I can’t say much more than that. It’s hard to guard her. But then again, it’s hard to get up a shot against her. I got a few shots up against some tall girls today, so that helped me build up a little bit of confidence. A’ja and Candice are really long girls; they’re athletic girls who really come out here to compete.

A'ja is drawing attention too.

In early April, Stewie was about as good as it gets.
