The left-handed guard can score at any level and is comfortable shooting off the dribble from beyond the arc or from mid-range. If defenders try and run her off the line, she is more than comfortable putting it on the deck and scoring at the hoop. With great handles and solid vision, Weirden has been filling up stat sheets every time out this season. She is also a tenacious rebounder stacking up double-digit rebounds four times this season. Wiederin's numbers speak for the type of skill she displays, averaging 17 points, nine rebounds, five assists and four steals per game.u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eu003ca href=u0022http://www.hudl.com/v/2KHqM8u0022u003ehttp://www.hudl.com/v/2KHqM8u003c/au003e.u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='766585' first='JJ' last='Black']","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"6'2u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"12120","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"Elkhorn Valley","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_1_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eAs a 6'2 sophomore filling the stat sheet night in and night out, [player_tooltip player_id='766585' first='JJ' last='Black'] has emerged as one of the top prospects in her class. Black is a lengthy post player with great athleticism. On offense, she has the ability to get out and run in transition and finish around the hoop. In the halfcourt, she prefers faceups with a confident mid-range jumpshot. Defensively is where Black has been giving opponents fits. She is athletic enough to switch on to smaller guards and is constantly blocking and changing shots around the hoop. 12 games into her sophomore year, Black is averaging 11.3 points, 9.9 rebounds, and 6.5 blocks per game. Keep an eye on the breakout sophomore and this talented Elkhorn Valley team.u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"Adyson Mlnarik","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"5'7u0022","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"12121","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"Summerland","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_2_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eOne of the top shooters in the 2024 class, Summerland junior guard Adyson Mlnarik has been lighting up defenses all season long. Mlnarik is a threat to shoot from anywhere in the gym, and with a quick release, can get her shot off with ease. Her breakout season has helped Summerland get off to a 12-1 start with averages of 20.3 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 4 steals per game. The junior guard continues to see more attention as the season progresses with constant double teams and box-and-one defense. Mlnarik and the Bobcats haven't skipped a beat, rallying off 9 straight wins. Mlnarik is a volume shooter and for good reason, she is 28-68 (41%) from three. She also shoots 52% from the field and 80% from the charity stripe.u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='770415' first='Madison' last='Abbenhaus']","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"5'7u0022","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"12125","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"Bloomfield","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_3_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eAnother breakout performer in northeast Nebraska resides in Bloomfield. [player_tooltip player_id='770415' first='Madison' last='Abbenhaus'] is an athletic, versatile guard that has been lighting up defenses and scoreboards alike this season. Abbenhaus, who scored 40 points in a win over Creighton earlier this year, can score in a variety of ways. A relentless driver and strong finisher, Abbenhaus is nearly impossible to stop in the lane without multiple help defenders. She also has the ability to step out and knockdown the three. Her offensive versatility has made her one of the top scorers in the area averaging 16.1 points per game for Bloomfield.u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"Ellie Tramp","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"5'5u0022","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"12121","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"Crofton ","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_4_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eWith Crofton losing a majority of their scoring to graduation a year ago, the 13-1 Warriors haven't skipped a beat this season. One reason is due to the breakout season from Ellie Tramp. The junior guard's skills were on display last weekend with 16 points, eight assists, and three steals for Crofton in their 58-48 victory over Lakota Tech on Saturday. Tramp is quick and skilled; if left open she will knockdown the open jump shot, but is a great driver with the ability to pass and finish. She is excellent in transition, creating turnovers and turning them into buckets for herself and teammates on the other end. Tramp has emerged as one of the go to options for a young Crofton team that continues to stack up wins. u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63c98d5689a91"} /-->
