Mary Schleusner #11 (Charlotte Latin, F) uses her length to her advantage. She was causing deflections on defense, and she knows how to grab steals to take the other direction. To bring the trifecta of her defense, she can certainly cause blocks and that usually turned into steals that were pushed up the court. Her ability to follow shots and time her rebounds perfectly set her up for some second chance opportunities. She would seem to come out of nowhere to grab rebounds, and in the fourth quarter she did a great job grabbing offensive rebounds to extend the possessions for her team.
Maddie Shannon #21 (Charlotte Latin, F) did a nice job driving to the baseline. She made her presence known around the paint. She was consistently aware of where she was and how to make a move to get to the basket. On defense, she did a good job moving around constantly finding ways to prevent her opponent from getting the entry pass.
Ella Mcclain #4 (Metrolina Christian Academy, SF) did a great job making her presence known inside fighting for rebounds. She used offensive rebounds for second chance points for herself and fought through contact to get these points. On defense, she’d grab rebounds and immediately look to push the ball up the court. She had some nice cuts on offense to score some points near the basket always being aware of where she was on the court. On defense, she did a great job using her body and full length to prevent her opponents from getting the position they wanted.
Taylor Houseton #55 (Covenant Day, F) can power through any kind of contact that she needs to and fights for every possession. She grabbed rebounds as well, especially on offense that she used for second chance opportunities.
Eseosa Imafidon Eseosa Imafidon 6'5" | C Covenant Day | 2022 NC #25 (Covenant Day, C) is tall and that certainly comes in handy when she is going up for rebounds. Her length makes opponents change their game plan when they get near the basket. It is a consistent occurrence to see her block shots. She can use various moves to score including power dribbles and spin moves.
