Which Team will Sustain a Powerful Playoff Run?

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Undoubtedly, the Fremd Vikings have one of the deepest benches in Illinois. The number of contributing players can make up two championship teams. Led by seniors [player_tooltip player_id='347000' first='Maddy' last='Fay'] and [player_tooltip player_id='148141' first='Kace' last='Urlacher'], this team has as straight a path to Redbird Arena as any in the state. NIU commit Maddy is a player no one wants to go up against.  She is a tough competitor on both sides of the ball. Her stature and strength allow her to dominate the ball in the paint and her defense allows her teammates to create big plays.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>IUPUI commit, Kace displays her full athleticism with no sign of tiring every time she steps on the court.  She was the gamechanger in a number of key games this season, handling the ball in transition and putting up big points. Duke soccer commit, Sam Bodensteiner is the targeted defender set on the fastest opponent.   Junior [player_tooltip player_id='335797' first='Brynn' last='Eshoo'] is a talented forward who can also handle the post position. Her height and fluidity help her transition to whatever the team needs at the moment.  She can score in the perimeter and in the paint.  She is also crafty on the defensive end with blocks and steals.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>What makes this team so menacing is that three of their top players are only sophomores.  [player_tooltip player_id='352113' first='Ella' last='Todd'] is collecting numerous Division 1 offers and she seems to improve every game.  She is one of the most well-rounded players out there.  The gifted guard uses her ball handling skills to avoid defenders from coast to coast and effortlessly glide to the basket for offensive boards.  Her basketball IQ is expansive, and it helps to steer plays in the Vikings' direction.  [player_tooltip player_id='352121' first='Coco' last='Urlacher'] has keen defensive skills.  She covers the entire court on defense and her eyes never leave the ball.  She is proof that your stat line, however impressive, does not display the massive impact she has on the game and her team.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='335714' first='Ellie' last='Thompson'] has an engine that does not quit.  She can keep up with the quickest opponent and the accuracy of her shots captivates the crowd every time she gets the ball in her hands.   If these seven stellar players were not enough to get you downstate for a championship, Fremd also has talented freshman [player_tooltip player_id='515520' first='Greta' last='Thompson'] on reserve.  Greta is effortlessly smooth.  She uses her wingspan and length to effortlessly glide the ball in the basket and will be a dominating force for this team in the years to come.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
