She was ready to be an influence in whatever way her team needed. Wolfe handled the ball incredibly efficiently making turnovers a very rare occurrence, she shot the ball at a very high percentage and she made hustle plays. She even rebounded off the perimeter and ended the season as one of her team's leading rebounders. Wolfe was named 1st Team OK Red All-Conference. Then she hit the post season and delivered some huge games on big stages. A perfect example of this is when Wolfe scored 20 points in a regional championship win. Her season ended with a Division 1 state championship. Sounds like a Player of the Year to me.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64183e65adafc"} /-->
