<p>Continuing our preview of the 6A State Playoffs for the 6A Classification, we take an intriguing look at a trio of teams from the Beaver State. The Benson Techsters were tested early and often in the early season, starting things off in the East Coast against elite competition - it has paid off as they have steamrolled through the PIL. The Clackamas Cavaliers started the season on national radars as look to prove a statement with one of the most decorated rosters in the State. The Jefferson Democrats are a young bunch with an interesting group of talent as they look to prove their worth headed into March.</p>

<p><strong>Benson Techsters</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Techsters have a plethora of talent, centered around the senior duo in [player_tooltip player_id='158559' first='Malaya' last='LeSueur'] and Onna Brown who are very much so yin and yang at the guard position. Center [player_tooltip player_id='255256' first='Mahogany' last='Chandler-Roberts'] is the bulldozing machine who plays with authority yet poise. Mauriana Hashemina-orr is a poised point guard who scores with good accuracy as well as drops off dimes to her fellow teammates. Super freshman Samrah Massey is an incredibly gifted scorer who does it all at three-levels with much ease. Add transfer [player_tooltip player_id='834113' first='Eboni' last='Clay'] into the mix and you have a truly formidable cast of Techsters who play with tremendous aggressiveness on both ends of their floor. </p>

<p><strong>Clackamas Cavaliers</strong></p>

<p>The Clackamas Cavs began the season on several top 25 lists and recently they have shown why. The Cavs have yet to lose a game to an In-State team as of yet and look to continue to do so to clinch a State Championship. On paper, they certainly have the looks of such a team. Household name [player_tooltip player_id='833357' first='Jazzy' last='Davidson'] anchors the Cavs as a generational talent with grace and wit. Seniors [player_tooltip player_id='158545' first='Rhyan' last='Mogel'] and [player_tooltip player_id='158558' first='Eliza' last='Buerk'] began the spark in the program as sophomores and look to lead. The talent continues with multi-tasking [player_tooltip player_id='502350' first='Dylan' last='Mogel'] and [player_tooltip player_id='833601' first='Allie' last='Roden']. [player_tooltip player_id='833579' first='Avery' last='Peterson'] is the blistering guard whereas [player_tooltip player_id='833518' first='Sara' last='Barhoum'] the sniper that comes alive. The Cavaliers are a serious contender and look to continue the conversation.</p>

<p><strong>Jefferson Democrats</strong></p>

<p>The Demos have made noise all season long and have quite the cast of young talent on their roster. First and foremost is [player_tooltip player_id='502343' first='Abrianna' last='Lawrence'], daughter of Coach Andre Lawrence. She leads her team with courage and strength through grit and example. Chauncey Lawrence is a forward who plays with tenacity and confidence. Twins Leila and [player_tooltip player_id='985195' first='Carmela' last='Nunez'] are two intriguing forwards who have the ability to stretch the floor and take it gracefully to the basket. [player_tooltip player_id='502346' first='Brooklyn' last='Chatman'] has seniority, being one of the older members on the team and has taken a larger role as a sharpshooter as of late.</p>
