Wittenberg Shootout- Catching our Attention

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One final look at some of the players who stood out to me on Saturday at the Wittenberg Shootout. These five players should be productive during this upcoming season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Anaya Hawkins - Walnut Hills</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Good strong physical post kid who has a soft touch around the rim and can score at the paint. She sees the floor well can defend. Able to contribute in a variety of ways, will be one of the top players in the Cincinnati area with her floor presence. Able to play in an uptempo offense. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Lilah Dalraine - Little Miami</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Can knock down the three, quick release, and really good at shooting off the pass. Solid handles and good court vision, she does a nice job cleaning up in the paint. Can score with a soft touch up the rim. Moves well and her good handles. Nice on-ball defender. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Ayden Rodgers - Cedarville</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Very scrappy guard, able to play physical and moves well without the ball getting herself in position to be effective. She knows the game, and makes the right plays. Her game continues to improve and I expect a solid year from the junior and a big July with the Dayton Lady Hoopstars.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='451615' first='Jenna' last='Burke'] - Kings</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Can play well downhill put the ball on the floor and get through the defense. Aggressive and has a nose for the ball. She often makes the big play. Good on ball defender. Can create plays and is a key part of a team looking to make another big run. Good handles and distributes well with good court vision. <em>(feature photo above)</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Ava Winchester - Norwood</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Can slash well to the rim and score off the pass. Able to get to her spot and can be productive in the offense. She is a multiple-sport athlete with success last season as an all-conference player. The senior should see her production increase this year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
