Plays with a ton of heart. Super competitive that gives it her all. She guards the 1-5 position, without fear. Very talented with her ball handling skills and ability to run the offense. Can knock down the 3 ball and hit a mid-range of the dribble. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='166168' first='Hannah' last='Kohn']</strong> 5'8" 2023 SG Hagerty/HDE</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This kid can flat out play. I have said this before, she has really improved over the last few years. It has showed she has really worked on her handles, toughness, and overall play. Hoop Dream Elite runs many set plays for her, to get her the open look, which she capitalizes by draining the outside shot consistently. She also rebounds and makes the right pass to her teammates. <img class="wp-image-333366" style="width: 150px" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/09/IMG_7296-rotated.jpg" alt=""></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='419646' first='Talia' last='Kemp']</strong> 5'6” 2024 PG J Sizzle/CFCA</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kemp, is a smooth Point guard that can get going quickly.&nbsp; She has a quick first step that she uses with her nifty ball handling skills.&nbsp; She constantly finishes through contact, getting the foul and finishing with the and 1.&nbsp; Controls the floor for the team.&nbsp; And pushes the ball in transition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><img class="wp-image-371684" style="width: 150px" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/01/Ortiz.jpg" alt=""><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='248263' first='Karishma' last='Ortiz']</strong> 5'9” PG 2024 Timber Creek/BSO</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ortiz is a crafty young Point Guard.  She sees the floor extremely well, making the on-time, on-target pass.  She can hit the mid-range or the 3 ball from the outside.
