without even thinking about who you left off, the list looks pretty good to me. I could quibble about Nina Davis being there on the first team, but everything else looks pretty realistic to me.
Ionescu is an interesting choice. She will definitely be asked to contribute this year for that team. I guess you're thinking it will take longer for the PGs and bigs to get integrated than a wing?

I think your teams are pretty good. Very good in fact.
FOY? I'd put Ramirez, Young, Holmes in front of her. I'm expecting Ramirez to be the standout freshman.

Thanks for the kind words.
RE FOY, All are strong candidates, and none would surprise me. Just the way Graves has been gushing makes me think big things this year for Ionescu. Could be wrong, freshman are often a crap shoot.

Tough to leave off some of the backcourt depth...Alexis Jones, Romero, Brown are just a few.
Also I am painfully aware there's a power five slant here, but they really do seem to have the best group to me this year.
Other thing I found amusing was it was really easy to pick by position, while at the W level it's darn near impossible.

agree about the by position. The other one I noticed 'missing' is Alaina Coates. But the bigs you list are deserving.
