And that's all true. But she's also as loyal and supportive of a teammate as there is statewide. That's a part of why I think that she's one of the most valuable prospects to a program at the next level.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["244311"],"_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":"If you've been reading my work for some time, you probably know how high I am on Jungwirth and her game. She has a lethal 2 dribble drive and next level strength and mobility. All of that aside, her positivity speaks volumes about her as a player and person.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["260503"],"_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":"Zeitz could have complained for years about where we had her ranked. Honestly, she'd still have a case. Really, she could have complained about everyone underestimating her. But nope, she went ahead and did her business and let her game do her talking. That worked out, because her game has spoken loud and clear.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["244312"],"_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":"Popyk has faced adversity with an injury and has come out better on the other side. She's tougher and focused on her skill development. In my opinion, every team needs a Popyk. If I was a next level ccoach, I'd be begging her to consider my school, she's that good for a team.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["419532"],"_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":"Miller's getting a lot of ink lately, but like I always say, she deserves it. It's very rare that you find such a mentally tough and savvy high school basketball player. I think it's part of what makes her great. Miller's mental fortitude will take her far in life as well as basketball. If she ran for mayor of my town right now, she'd have my vote.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["424155"],"_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":"Farr is a special basketball player, there's no doubt about that. But watch her as a person not just an athlete the next time you see her play. I love her vocal leadership.

College coaches for obvious reason, because most of you are going to want her on your campus someday. The rest of us, because it's really nice to watch the joy and happiness she plays the game with. You can tell that Roehm just love being on the court.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":7,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64943e09700b6"} /-->
