Lone Star Fall Event- Team 1 Evaluations

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's only fitting that I'm writing about players from the College Station area because that is where my daughter helped lead Texas A&amp;M to a National Championship in 2011. Last night, her Las Vegas Aces team won their second consecutive WNBA Championship so GIG EM and here you go</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Raya Fennell (2026)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Fennell was among several players at the event who played "on the ball" defense off the top. Her pressure both in the half and full court was tough and it helped to create turnovers. She also did a good job of creating her shot to either attack the basket off the dribble or drop the jumper. She showed good body control on her finishes and dropped the long ball</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Ellie Fritsch (2027)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Fritsch did a good job of setting the defender up to attack the basket by using a variety of moves to get them off balance yet her STUTTA, stutter step, was effective both in the set as well as in the open court as it allowed her to score off the dribble. She also showed she could drop the pull-up jumper while being defended, she dove on the floor for loose balls and played the passing lane </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='790261' first='Kaely' last='Brown'] (2026)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Brown is "long and athletic" and I call that the BASE. I love evaluating that profile, and more importantly, so do many next-level coaches and they offer opportunities to play. Here are some of her INTANGIBLES. She does a good job in the paint, scored around the basket, and rebounded on both ends of the court. She also ran the floor, scored off the dribble, faced the basket to score, and did a good job on defense </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Camrya Wren (2028)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Wren is heady and by understanding the game and playing within herself, she made solid decisions, especially on who to get the ball to and when to do it. Her court vision will be one of the things that creates problems for the defender because she can also score attacking the basket, has nice body control on her finishes, and drops the jumper, from mid to long-range</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Adriana Liscano (2028)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Liscano is strong and understands how to use her frame around the basket. She also understands positioning and that showed by her rebounding on both ends of the court. She also did a good job defending the interior, even stepping outside the paint a few times to guard her man. She even took the defender off the dribble from multiple angles </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Sasha Pavan (2029) </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Pavan mixed it up nicely on the offensive end and her deceptive first step had a lot to do with it. First of all, it enabled her to get by the defender to either attack the basket and score, or dish yet her body control to do either was solid. She also used that same first step to create separation as she dropped the jumper, with a hand in her face. She was also one of the youngest players in attendance yet you would have never known </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
