The #CoachHemi camps have hosted some of the nation’s top talent in recent years. Notre Dame signee and McDonald’s All-American guard Anaya Peoples trained with our Christian Simmons at our camp in Indy (see film here). She was joined by recent Oregon commit Sydney Parrish at the camp. Parrish has established herself as one of the nation’s elite at her position in the class of 2020 (see film here). Below we take a look at other former campers that earning attention from college coaches this summer.

Ivy Bales – Sevierville, Tennessee – 2020
Bales recently gave her verbal commitment to American University. A 5-foot-10 guard, Bales brings great versatility to the court. Her ability to attack slower defenders from the perimeter or she can mix it up on the interior with rebounding and scoring. Bales has always been a staff favorite of ours and a standout with the Tennessee Flight Select program. See her evaluation via ProspecsNation.com HERE.
Kate Clarke – Carmel, Indiana – 2022
Clarke’s recruitment has exploded since we saw her at our camp in Indy in March. The 6-2 guard is a shooting specialist who has added play-making abilities to her game. As a result, a host of Big Ten schools have actively entered in her pursuit by extending a scholarship offer. Michigan was the first after seeing Clarke with her Indy Magic club team at the PSB Power 48 tourney in Jeffersonville, Indiana. Since then, Purdue, Illinois, Indiana and Western Michigan have offered as well. Check her video from the camp below.
Macey Lee – Jackson, Tennessee – 2020
The West Tennessee native is picking up next level interest this summer. The 6-foot guard brings unique length and skill to the court. Lee picked up D-I offers from North Alabama and the University of Arkansas Little-Rock. She has recently picked up offers from successful D-II programs in Texas A&M International, Union University, Columbus State University and Anderson University.
Alyssa Goehring – Jackson, Tennessee – 2020
We identified Goehring last fall as a potential trail-4 specialist at the collegiate level. Within the past week, coach Scott Blum at Cumberland University in Lebanon, Tennessee, agrees with that projection. Goehring’s size and ability to stretch the floor are important attributes at the next level. See her skills below from last year’s highlights from our camp.
Alyssa Crockett – Westfield, Indiana – 2022
Crockett could be the next sleeper prospect to emerge from the Hoosier state. The 6-2 wing has deep shooting range to go along with high level length. We saw her skills first hand at the Coach Hemi Showcase in Indy two springs ago. Coach Nancy Fahey and her staff at Illinois identified Crockett’s talents this summer and extended an offer. She recently picked up an offer from Marquette as well. See Crockett’s skills below.
