Kyle Williams' top 25 high school girls basketball teams are on the move, and for Providence senior Eilish Raines, playing guard is an essential role. Not because of her scoring prowess but to keep defenses honest, allowing senior Landrie Callahan, junior Layken Callahan, and Taylor Healey to dominate in the paint.
Eilish's ability to control the pace and feed her teammates has been instrumental in the Celtics' 16-2 start this season. Her unselfishness is contagious, helping her team thrive in a paint-first approach. Raines' remarkable vision and assist-to-turnover ratio demonstrate her growth as a player.
In other news, Benet (No. 1) takes on Marist (No. 9) Monday at 7:00 p.m. in a rematch of their Montini Christmas Tournament championship game. This highly anticipated matchup will showcase Marist's fun offense and Benet's stifling defense. On the opposite side, Naperville Central (No. 3) hosts Loyola Academy (No. 4) on Monday at 7:00 p.m., featuring Clemson recruit Trinity Jones.
The Super 25 rankings are constantly evolving. Providence moves up to No. 14 after a loss to Notre Dame Academy. Glenbard West takes over the No. 15 spot, while Downers Grove North climbs to No. 16. St. Ignatius rounds out the top 25 at No. 25.
