<p>60 games with about 30 teams gathered in 2 gyms at Good Counsel High School in Olney, MD. The annual event is a kickoff to the new season with many getting a first look at some of the top teams in the region playing regulation quarters against equally matched competition. As always there were dozens of college coaches on hand eyeing some future prospects. With so much talent, obviously there is a lot to talk about game and playerwise. Here are some of the players that were amongst the best of the best.</p>

Between the arial theatrics, her long range shooting and her acrobatic finishes, I'm not sure what impressed the most. She showed a complete array of skills each time down the floor and looked primed to step in at Duke and make an impact on day 1.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","anchor":"acf-block-637afe5f5ccee"} /-->

Defensively she doesn't give up on the play running down several players with a clear path to the basket in transition getting clean blocks by the rim. A few of her blocked shots were against players with a significant height advantage. Mekhia still being unsigned may have punched her ticket during the Super Scrimmage.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["142839"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_player_featured_image":552222,"_player_evaluations_1_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Makaela has good ball control and was great in transition.

She is a DMV native that is well travelled and hard to keep up with on and off the court. On the court it's her speed that leaves defenders in the dust. Her shot is consistent and may be released from half court if she is feeling like it. Her ball handling is one of the best we've seen in years and she is a crowd pleaser even if it takes an extra dribble or two. She was clearly one of the top guards in the building.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":3,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","anchor":"acf-block-637afe5f5cd7b"} /-->
