She's a strong, sturdy 6-foot, capable of banging down low for rebounds and scoring on putbacks. Where Riley really separates herself is with her shooting touch. She is a knockdown three-point shooter that has also improved her off the dribble game. Simmons is blossoming into a real three-level scorer, becoming more than just a premier stretch-four, but holding upside as a possible full-time wing. Riley should be high atop D-II wish lists and could possibly find herself on D-I radars with a strong summer.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["311564"],"_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":"u003cstrongu003eUp from No. 47u003c/strongu003ernThe double-double machine is incredibly springy with an elite nose for the ball. Grace cleans up misses and will score on second and third chances. She gets off the ground quickly with second leaps, beating opponents to rebounds. Ridley can attack some off the dribble and is growing her jump shot range. D-II programs have already offered. It's hard to believe Ridley is only a junior. It feels like she's been dominating Northwest Georgia and setting records for more than just three years.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["302971"],"_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":"u003cstrongu003eUp from No. 65u003c/strongu003ernReed is an intriguing post prospect that has drawn interest from D-III programs and high academic D-II schools. Megan is physical on the low block, utilizing quality footwork with her back to the basket. She embraces contact when she goes to score, but also has a finesse side of her game, able to routinely hit mid-range jumpers and even stretch the floor to the three-point line. Megan is a reliable rebounder and is a solid rim protector.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["484962"],"_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":"u003cstrongu003eUp from No. 85u003c/strongu003ernI think more schools will start putting [player_tooltip player_id='484962' first='Kaden' last='McCorvey'] on their recruiting boards this offseason. She is a really good low post scorer that has a variety of moves and knows how to finish around the rim. McCorvey rebounds the ball at a high level and blocks a handful of shots.  Kaden has a soft touch from the mid-range that helps loosen up defenses.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["561800"],"_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":"u003cstrongu003eUp from No. 94u003c/strongu003ernIndia has undeniable size.

While she needs to add some weight to her wiry thin frame, Byrd is tough in the paint. She collects rebounds at their highest point for putbacks. Rionna does a nice job playing through contact for her size. She is mobile, able to run the floor and sometimes attack with the dribble. Rionna will shoot the mid-range jumper. Byrd's defense results in deflections and blocked shots.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":6,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6401f8aadc9c5"} /-->
