She has an innate feel for where the ball is going to bounce off the rim. This allows her to collect rebounds with ease.  Her motor is constant, she uses her length to steal and defend and she moves swiftly for someone of her size.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["352142"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Bella's strength dominated her game at the showcase.  A merciless defender who plays in the post with high energy and toughness.  She crashes the boards with a purpose and doesn't let anyone get in her way.  When she pull downs the offensive boards, she puts the ball right back up becoming a double threat to her opponents.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["427156"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Valerie's play on Sunday left me speechless.  She was my standout player of the showcase!  Every move she made was impressive. She topped the last move she did every time she touched the ball.   I can't make out every note I took by her name because she there were so many.  Her defense, shot fakes, perfect passes, jump shots, 3s were just some of the moves she did to wow the crowd.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["335807"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"The sophomore guard was impressive in this showcase.  She is super quick off the dribble and delivers the ball to whoever is in the best position to score.  If she is the one taking the shot, she is comfortable under the basket or out to the arc.  When you look at her, you just know that she is going to do something special with the ball.  Her handles are as strong as they come.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["352111"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Diann is dominant post player who can play at both ends of the court.  She defends the lane and knows how to score with dominance.  She has great size and strength and matches up with any player on the court.  Nothing seems to rattle her. Nimble footwork is not always common with a post player, but she has it!  She boxes out and does it with firm control-which allows her to corral a ton of rebounds.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["352110"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"The sophomore point guard is a playmaker.  Her basketball IQ was on full display at the exposure camp. She has the ability to score from every level and can set her teammates up for quick shots.  She can beat her opponent off the dribble with her speed and finishes strong at the basket.  She is tough with a high motor.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_6_player_details_player_name":"Emma Pierson","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_6_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_6_player_details_height":"5'9u0022","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_6_player_details_position":"","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_6_player_details_school":"Belvidere High School ","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_6_player_details_club_team":"Midwest Wildcats","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_6_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_6_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"The quick and nimble guard was a joy to watch.  Strong handles were evident when the ball was in her hands.  Confidence allowed her to see the floor and make solid passes.  She was cool when she drove to the basket, as if she was the only one in the paint.
