CASSANDRA ASCENCIO — 5-foot-7, sophomore, guard, American Leadership: The sophomore sharpshooter on this upstart team averaged 16.6 points per game this season, while knocking down 37 treys. The prolific scorer scored 33 points in her team's first state tourney game at Snow College.

MORGAN BAILEY — 6-foot-1, sophomore, center, Timpanogos: Bailey had a knack for getting to the ball, whether it was rebounding on offense or defense. And she could do something with it when she got it in averaging 10.1 points per game.

AMY WEITZEIL — 6-foot-1, senior, forward/center, Timpanogos: She can score, she can rebound, she can pass the ball. Weitzeil was also a huge leadership force for her team all season long. She finished the season with 9.9 points per game and led the T-Wolves in boards.

STEPHANIE ROGERS — 6-foot, senior, forward, Lehi: Rogers had a tough job in leading her team against 5A foes for the first time in school history, but she still managed to average 11 points per game on a nice shooting touch.

GENNA BROWN — 5-foot-7, junior, guard, Springville: She was the shooter on an athletic Red Devil squad that made it to the semifinals of the state tournament. Brown finished the year with a 9.5 points per game average while pouring in 41 treys.
