Individual Standouts This Season

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I won't have anything posted tomorrow, so I want to spend today talking about a few kids I haven't highlighted much recently but deserve recognition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='401056' first='Ella' last='Hamacher']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hamacher's never been the focal point of what Stoughton wants to do until this season. At times, it's looked a little uncomfortable, but overall, I've loved what Hamacher's done for the Vikings thus far. She's scored in double-figures in all but one game this season, and the Vikings need her taking north of 14 shots per game if they want to be consistently competitive. She's proven a lot from her conditioning, ability to score with volume, rebound for her position, and a more diverse arsenal of moves to get to her left hand. She's improved each year she's been a Viking.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='329543' first='Shayna' last='Williamson']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Over the last few seasons, Appleton North has been this plucky bottom half of the FVA team that would give teams like Neenah a real game and come up seven to nine points short. Now, the Lighting is a team threatening to break into the top four of the FVA, which I did not expect coming into the season, and Williamson has been integral to this season. She's consistently knocked down shots from the perimeter, defended well, and been a solid secondary creator for the Lightning.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='329599' first='Ceanna' last='Froh']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Everyone I know who knows [player_tooltip player_id='329599' first='Ceanna' last='Froh'] rave about how hard she works on her own time to improve, and it's paying off. Froh has been Sun Prairie West's best offensive player this season, and she's only getting better. My favorite thing about her game is her understanding of everyone's rhythm. She'll never have what you'd consider an off-shooting night because if Froh feels like she doesn't have her shot going on a given night, she'll gladly turn in a facilitator. The way that kids like Froh shoot as good of a percentage as they do is because they never overshoot, which is something that doesn't get talked about elite shooters.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='842211' first='Taelyn' last='Jirschele']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>After getting a year of high school ball under her belt, Jirschele's perimeter shooting has spiked. The eye test always said that Jirschele shot the ball like a 40-plus percent three-point shooter, and that's what she's been this season. She's not the tallest guard in the central part of Wisconsin, but she's one of the most physical ones in that area. That power allows her to make those shots look effortless, which they have thus far this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
