Ava is a Point guard, who can take over the game with her scoring and control the offense. As just a freshman on Varsity, she proved she is a big time playmaker. She had many big games, including a triple double, and many high scoring games. She plays very well within the flow off the offense, and doesn’t force anything. She is patient, and swings the ball around around, knowing it could get her or a teammate a better shot. She is a high percentage three point shooter, with a smooth shooting form. Ava is very tough player to guard in the open floor, and has a high competitive drive. Looking forward to watching her compete with some of the best in New England Saturday.
Molly will be one of the tallest players in attendance Saturday, standing at 6’3. She will also be one of the more physical players in attendance. Aside from her size, she has a good touch around the rim, and moves well for her size. She is a good passer from the high and low post. Her level of potential is high because of her size, along with her skill set. She is also good on the pick and roll, and is even showing the ability to stretch the floor and shoot. Molly is a player to pay attention to on Saturday.
Highlights
Madison is a quick, and crafty Point Guard, that you should pay attention to on Saturday. She has a quick first step, and has good explosiveness off the dribble. She has shown the ability to score over bigger defenders, and is able to get in the paint despite her size. She is an unselfish player, who can lead a team in scoring, or in assists. She has a good feel for the game, and is a good decision maker.
Highlights
Lindsay is a Forward with a good size and a strong built for the position. She is aggressive, and can handle the ball, and attack the defenders. She has a strong upside to her game, and I think you could see a breakout season from her this winter. On defense she has good anticipation, and is active in the passing lanes. Another player to pay attention to on Saturday.
Sophie is a Guard who is strong on both sides of the floor. Her defense often leads to offense for her team. She is also one of the better rebounding guards I have seen play. She is able to guard multiple positions on defense, and often will guard players bigger in size. She has a high motor, and plays with high energy. She can be a scorer, but She also has good court vision.
