It was a great year of camps, especially with another year of the Lady Top 80. It provided Lady Phenom an opportunity to check out talent all around the state, and plenty of names impressed. One player that captured our eyes and took home an award was 2025 5’11 Sofia Ponce from Victory Christian.
Ponce was one that simply just brought value to the table with her play; she consistently showed that she can impact the game and bring production to the table with her play. She provides good size and length, she played hard on both sides of the court and found ways to make value plays, and was active on the offensive end. Ponce can play several positions and brings versatility, showing her ability to finish around the basket well and be active on the glass to create opportunities offensively and limit opponents defensively. She ran the floor well, played with a high IQ and motor, and just found ways to make plays without always being the in the spotlight. Ponce earned praise throughout the camp and looks to be a sneaky prospect to watch out for more.
What Was Said:
“Next, we look at a player who stood out as one of the most productive campers on display, Sofia Ponce. She’s an athletic, high-motor wing prospect with a polished skillset and great feel on both ends of the floor. Ponce offers phenomenal activity on the court, which naturally leads to transition and second-chance opportunities. She’s a great finisher and midrange shooter who can knock down open three-pointers as needed. Ponce utilizes her length and general activity to wreak havoc and force turnovers defensively. She’s also a tremendous rebounder. Next in her development process is working on her consistency from beyond the arc, as it would make her even more difficult for opponents to contain. Coach Baker on Ponce: “Sofia is exceptionally fast and athletic. Can get downhill in a hurry, attack the basket, and finish with various moves inside. Quick euro-step. She has a nice midrange game, but her strong point is slashing. Great on-ball defender because of her length and athleticism.” Ponce stood out as a top performer, finishing seventh in scoring at 10.7 PPG, and should be a focal point for Victory Christian during her upcoming senior season.”
