Prospect Spotlight: Jessika Evans

Jessika was named to the Central Oklahoma Athletic Conference (COAC) 1^stTeam and 6A All-Tournament team. She also helped lead her high school team, Norman North, to the 6A State Tournament Championship for 2019! So many aspects that I love about Jessika skill ability. She can create from all levels on the court. She has no issue attacking the rim on the drive. She shoots from the perimeter extremely well and handles the ball at a high rate. She pushes the ball in transition and boards well. 100% a forward that can handle the small forward or power forward position for any team due to high skill set. I also love the IQ that can easily been seen through her decision making with the ball. <em>Photo by The Oklahoman</em> &nbsp; <span style="font-size: 18pt"><strong>JESSIKA EVANS</strong></span> [caption id="attachment_46911" align="alignright" width="415"] <em>Photo by the Norman Transcript</em>[/caption] &nbsp; <strong>Grade: </strong>Junior <strong>Height: </strong>6'1 <strong>Position: </strong>Forward/Guard <strong>High School: </strong>Norman North <strong>Travel Team: </strong>Below The Rim <strong>Jersey Number (s): </strong>25 <strong>Offers: </strong>Oklahoma Christian and Florida International &nbsp; &nbsp; More about <strong>Jessika</strong>: <strong>What Inspired you start playing basketball?</strong> “The main thing that inspired me to play basketball was my brother and my dad!
