<span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Today a look at the Class of 2020, and my five players to watch. The staff will then put together a second group of kids in this class later today.</span>
<span style="color: #000000;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="89341" first="Corina" last="Conley"] (Franklin Monroe)-</strong> over the past four years, her game has grown tremendously from when she stepped onto the varsity floor as a freshman. Conley’s game has transformed from a post player into one of the most multi-dimensional seniors in Ohio. Her range has increased to where she is no longer just a post threat, she is a problem for defenses all over the court. Corina has good range, can hit the three, and rebound and push the outlet. </span>
<span style="color: #000000;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="89269" first="Abby" last="Jones"] (Jonathan Alder)-</strong> this kid could well be the best player in the Central Buckeye Conference this coming season. Like Conley, her game has blossomed and has become a major scoring threat heading into her senior season. Has excellent range and is not afraid to shoot it. Good ball handler, moves well without the ball and can either score from the perimeter or gets to the rim.</span>
<span style="color: #000000;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="89339" first="Cassidy" last="Crawford"] (Willard)-</strong> continues to draw a lot of attention as one of the top seniors in Ohio. Her game has expanded with her complete package. Long athletic kid who is a strong force in the paint, or can step out with good perimeter game. Can defend multiple positions and is a strong rebounder. Will compete at a high level. Smart player with a good basketball IQ. </span>
<span style="color: #000000;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><strong>Reagan Ware (Greenon)-</strong> if you need a clutch shot against a zone, this kid will get you one. Unlimited range and consistency from the outside, Ware is one of the top shooters in the Buckeye state. Good handles, exceptional IQ with the ability to know where to be. Despite her smaller frame, she can drive to the rim. Quick hands on defense and can pressure her opponent on the defensive end.</span>
<span style="color: #000000;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="89261" first="Kendall" last="Clodfelter"] (Tippecanoe)-</strong> her game really blossomed the past year, and is ready to take her game to the next level. Shined as a junior in a system that thrives on transition play, and she looks to push the ball. Runs the floor very well, can get to her spot. Will launch from behind the arc, or use her quickness to sneak to the rim. Underrated kid with a high ceiling at the next level.</span>
