ESPN lists her as 6'1" but there's just not a lot out there about this young lady.  She did participate in the 2025 USA Women’s U16 National Team trials in Colorado Springs, CO, and she attended the 2025 Women's Junior National Team April minicamp in Tampa.  She plays AAU on the EYBL circuit for the 17U AL Southern Starz and those stats are below.  As a 7th grader, she was a member of the Mars Hill varsity that won the Alabama 2A state championship.  She had 27 points, 8 rebounds, 2 steals and a block in the state championship game!!

Just a '28 and a long way to go in this recruitment but pretty impressive outing yesterday as Mars Hill defeated Our Lady Academy 76-51.  Belle finished with 45p,  16r,  11s

Those are some crazy stats

Nationally-ranked 2028 6-1 G BELLE HILL scored 46 pts & grabbed 16 Rebs to lead 3A-Mars Hill to a 58-53 WIN vs 6A-Mortimer Jordan!

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

In a 67-24 win last night, Belle had 35p and 10r.  In this game she recorded her 1,000th rebound -- she's just a sophomore!

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Nationally-ranked 2028 6-0 G BELLE HILL of #2-ranked 3A-Mars Hill Bible School (AL) recently surpassed both 2,500 points & 1,000 rebounds for her high school career (with 2.5+ seasons to go)!

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Her team is now 11-1 on the season.  Finding game stat info has been hit and miss but in 9 games she's averaged 32.4 ppg and in 5 games 13.4 rpg.  

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

First game I've watched her play and hard to really make any judgment based on the quality of the opponent.  Final score was 50-23 and Belle and the starters sat out the entire 4th Q.  Game was already well into the 1st Q before NFHS picked up the stream.  NFHS is wonderful because of the number of high school games you can watch but their scoreboard and clock graphics are pathetic.  Neither one worked at all for this game.  Stats I did record for her:  22p  5r,  3a,  3s,  2b,  2t.  She was 10-11 FTs.

She's a soph listed at 6'1" and serves as the teams PG and primary ball handler.  Most of her baskets are made at the rim.  She was 0-4 on 3s.  Seems pretty agile and made spin moves both to her right and left and showed she can dribble with either hand.  She stole the ball inside the foul line and raced down the court for the layup and no one on the other team caught up with her.  

MaxPrep for 13 gms:  33p,  11r,  3.5a,  3.7s,  1.8b       Her shooting % on MaxPrep is clearly inaccurate.

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Mars Hill (17-3) 57-38 over Madison Academy (10-9).  Listed now at 6'1" on MaxPreps.  Very good ballhandler and she is the one that brings the ball up the court in every instance unless they have a breakaway.  Right hand dominant but can dribble with either hand.  However, every drive down the lane was on the right side and only once did she make a spin move to her left.  Also jumps for rebounds and doesn't just reach for them.    18p;  12r,  6a,  2s,  6b,  2t.  She drew 6 fouls.  

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Mars Hill (19-3) 78-49 over Phil Campbell (13-13).    29p,  5r,  9a,  6s,  1b,  1t  played less than 22 min.   Listed at 6'1" and is team's primary ballhandler and can handle the ball with either hand.  Very mobile and made the effort to let others score when she could just as easily have taken the shot herself.  

I mentioned talent disparity in Sydney Savoury's thread.  Some scores of previous Mars Hill games:

• 78-17 over Sheffield
• 67-24 over Colbert Heights
• 68-21 over Phil Campbell (December game)
• 71-29 over Sulligent
