Impressive Playoff Performances

<!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Here are a few players who had impressive performances so far in the playoffs…</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"align":"left","id":853208,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/02/PGH-Quantrese-Washington-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-853208" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Quantrese Washington</strong> (5'8/PF/'24/Minor HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @Quantrese_w</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Quantrese is an absolute workhorse for her squad. She is a stout interior presence who plays with a lot of grit, passion, and toughness. She was a lot for the Lady Spartans to deal with as she was difficult to contain on the low block and the glass. She does a good job carving out space and creating room to put in work. She will be a huge factor as her squad steps on the court for their Sweet 16 match-up.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"align":"left","id":853209,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/02/PGH-Sarah-Passink-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-853209" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='381460' first='Sarah' last='Passink']</strong> (5'4/PG/'24/Mountain Brook HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: sarahpassink</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @sarahpassink</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Sarah's high school career came to an end this week as her squad lost to Minor, but what a career for Sarah. She emerged into one of the top lead guards in the state. I am unsure what her plans are regarding playing at the next level, but I will reach out and update later. Sarah didn't just let her team go down without a fight. She scored from multiple levels, orchestrated the offense, and left it all on the court.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"align":"left","id":853210,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/02/PGH-Ally-Sharpe-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-853210" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='371478' first='Ally' last='Sharpe']</strong>&nbsp;(5'5/PG/'26/Cullman HS)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: allyksharpe</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @allysharpe1</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Ally is a score-first PG who averaged 20pts on the season. She can absolutely score the rock from all levels. She is small in size but is difficult to contain. Even though she is an absolute bucket, she also does a good job orchestrating the offense for the Lady Bearcats. It was her sophomore campaign, and it came with a lot of responsibility, and she handled all of it very well. Even though her squad's season came to an end against Hazel Green, Ally will be back for two more years, and she will be amongst the top guards in the state over the next two years.&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"align":"left","id":853211,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/02/PGH-Brianna-Adams-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-853211" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='323205' first='Brianna' last='Adams']</strong> (5'10/F/'24/Minor HS) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: briannaadams_1</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Brianna is a versatile forward who showed a lot of ability to play across numerous positions. She will be a match-up problem moving forward in the playoffs, as she has good positional size and playmaking abilities. She has active hands on D and is very disruptive with her athleticism when guarding out in space. She is effective in transition and in the half-court as a scorer and will be a key piece to the puzzle for Minor as they continue their journey to Birmingham.   </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"align":"left","id":853212,"sizeSlug":"medium","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/02/PGH-Sinaya-Gibson-C.png?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-853212" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Sinaya Gibson&nbsp;</strong>(6'0/PF|C/'24/Hillcrest HS)&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">IG: sinayaasimonee_</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">X: @SinayaGibson</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Sinaya, the Wallace-Hanceville commit, has elevated her level of play as the playoffs have begun. She has been providing interior defense and activeness on the glass. She will be very key as they take the court for the Sweet 16 as games tend to slow down, and more possessions are played in the half-court with paint touches being a focus. If Sinaya can take away easy looks at the rim without getting out of rim protective position look for Hillcrest's chances to advance to increase.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
