Austin Elite's Rising Stars Alyssa Jones and Jazzmen Ortiz


The first time I saw these kids I was impressed and it seems like every time I watch them play I become more sold. AE has some very talented players, many from Temple High School so don't blink this season because they may sneak up on you and give you a big surprise. As a coach I respect a lot simply put it, 2013 Jones has "uncommon speed" and since I mentioned sneaking up on you, this kid has the ball and is gone the other way before you know what hit you. Ortiz is toning her skills at the point guard and has shown improvement each time I have watched her. With a slew of talented guards in the 2014 class, Ortiz hopes to have her name mentioned along them.
