PGH KY Top 250 Expo: Team 1

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The PGH Kentucky Top 250 Expo brought a lot of talented players to Louisville on Saturday. I really enjoyed watching the players that I don't typically get to see throughout the season, as well as seeing improvements from the players that I do get to watch a lot. I got to watch the first three games on court 2 before finishing out the day on court 1. Unfortunately, I only got to watch majority of the teams play one time, but I'm glad I at least got to get a glimpse of everyone that was in attendance. Throughout the day, I took down notes on what I was seeing from each player at the event. Below you will see those notes from the Top 250 Expo, starting with team 1.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='376765' first='Kylie' last='Alvin'] (#230)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Great find in the first possession of the game. Good handles, good speed, good looking outside shot. Really solid overall. Made some good drives to the basket and finished very well on the left side. Got in the passing lanes defensively.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='304632' first='Paige' last='Medley'] (#233)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Great movement without the ball. Deep range on her shot. Threads the needle so well. Passes through traffic. Stayed poised and in control. Scored inside and out. Smart plays with the ball. Applied great pressure defensively. Impacts the game in a lot of ways.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='502274' first='Lydia' last='Van Metre'] (#244)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Good defense. Great cuts. Good jumper. Remained solid on both ends of the court and really did a lot of the little things that often go unnoticed. Rebounded well, was always ready to step over in help defense, made good passes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='376789' first='Ashlinn' last='James'] (#303)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>So shifty. Quick handles and variety of moves make it extremely hard for the defense to stay in front. Can score in just about any way imaginable. Excellent playmaker and very unselfish despite having the talent to take over whenever she wants. Really just showed how special of a talent she was all throughout the day. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='493164' first='Kat' last='Cummins'] (#308)</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Good length and runs the floor consistently. Made great decisions with the ball. Knocked down shots all over the court. Can hit off the dribble or the catch. Moved feet well defensively and used length to alter shots. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
