A Stroll Down the Beachside Roster

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the teams making early noise on the First Coast is Beachside High School in St. John's County. In addition to having a solid returning core of players from last year's roster, Beachside added two of the top transfers on the First Coast to the team ([player_tooltip player_id='248553' first='Kendall' last='Kane'] -2025 and [player_tooltip player_id='515102' first='Madilyn' last='Ray'] - 2026). With a great roster comes great expectations. In this article we take a look at some of the key players on Beachside and hilight what they do best. <br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["514520"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='514520' first='Anni' last='Ament']  made a clutch three and steal down the stretch and some nice passes in the interior.   Several long threes down the stretch and a lot of assists to the 5  down low.  Annie appeared to get better and better as the game got closer and closer down the stretch.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["515102"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_player_featured_image":817079,"_player_evaluations_1_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='515102' first='Madilyn' last='Ray']  had Tocoi stressed from the moment the game started, but wasn't converting a lot of point blank shots. In the second half, shots started falling for the Sophomore big and she was the difference in the highly competitive contest. Ray has a plethora of offensive moves. She can back the fender down. She has great footwork in the paint and can maneuver iand get off close shots. Ray can shoot the short jumper and also shoot the long range three pointer.   Ray is a high IQ player who can play off the ball or have the offense run through her and have her make the reads.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["794720"],"_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='794724' first='Sophia' last='Iskander'] was very impressed at her ability game on Friday night.

Attitude is just one of her attributes. Iskander can shoot the rock from the three point line and from anywhere on the floor. She also loves getting to the rim.

She has very good handles, she is very athletic, and has a very high basketball IQ. She does a good job of letting the game come to her. In the second half of the game, Cremen turned it up a notch and knocked down a long corner three and scored in the paint. She also threw some dimes to her “big” and had some nice set up passes for her wing players. Defensively, she is quick and does a good job of creating havoc for the opposing guards. Last year she led St Johns in steals, and after seeing her agressive and savvy defense, that is no surprise.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["248553"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_player_featured_image":749092,"_player_evaluations_4_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='248553' first='Kendall' last='Kane'] is one of the junior veterans on the squad who can light it up from the perimeter.

She looked like a track star and basketball star all in one. Walker made play after play in the transition game. She had some coast to coast drives and also had some attacks to the basket that created open looks for her teammates. On offense, Walker also got in the paint a few times for the floater and short jumper. She played with the same energy and effort on defensive end and was very disruptive throughout the game.","_player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":8,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-656e413fbe8f4"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
