Isabella logs a lot of minutes and rarely leaves the floor for Head Coach Paul Runey and his Bishop England squad. She really can impact a game with her all-out hustle, competitiveness and determination. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":554296,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-medium"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/11/EE2DEB8A-2299-468B-81DA-372E219DC387.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-554296"/></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='378102' first='Molly' last='Seifert'] - </strong>Lucy Beckham HS </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Seifert saw plenty of action last season as an 8th grader. She was very vocal here today on the floor with her mates and played with a lot of maturity. Molly has a nice stroke from down to go with a quick shooting release. She plays very well away from the ball and always remains active on the floor. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Future Duo:</em></strong> </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='380650' first='Tiffany' last='Helmer']</strong> and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='380651' first='Ginny' last='Anne Dumont'] </strong>- St Joseph's Christian </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":554302,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-medium"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/11/1F0159E7-3E2F-4A43-A563-B654975FC37F-scaled-crop-1692x1111-1669228551-300x197.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-554302"/></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Helmer and Dumont look to be a great combination for many years to come for the Lady Knights. Tiffany brings a high arching shot from behind the arc to the table. She shoots the ball well from 3-point and with good confidence. Tiffany finished with 12 points after connecting on 4 three pointers today for the Lady Knights. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Dumont plays the game with some swagger for sure. Ginny got the ball into gaps and found open teammates with good looks. She was able to create her own shot with her solid handles. Ginny really can keep the ball on a string at times and does a good job in the open court going coast to coast. She finished with 15 points in a loss today. Oh yeah, she is a member of the 2027 class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>New Name for the Database: </em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":554308,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-medium"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2022/11/65F1C73C-D6CE-413C-999C-2FD726C10EBC-scaled-crop-1700x1116-1669228679-300x197.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-554308"/></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prep Girls Hoops has seen a lot of players over the years that's for sure. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='554292' first='Jaylah' last='Hughes']</strong> was a new one for us today here at the Riptide Invitational. Hughes a forward from Hanahan HS was all over the floor if it was rebounding the ball on both ends or picking up a steal in the passing lane, she was doing it for the Lady Hawks. Jaylah was all over the glass today, collecting rebounds out of her area. She has good length and brings great activity to the floor at all times. Future Stock-Riser in the 2024 Palmetto State Class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
