Phoenix Scrimmage-2028 Group

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I had a chance to catch several teams from the <strong>Phoenix</strong> organization so let me break down the younger group from the<strong> 2028 class</strong> who also had a <strong>2029</strong>, <strong>Ellie Mae Lester</strong>, in attendance. Two other talented players from the<strong> 2028 </strong>group, <strong>Erica Taylor-5'8 G (Jarrell) </strong>and <strong>Lexi Tutor-5'11 F (Salado)</strong>, weren't in attendance but I'll catch up with them soon</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["915490"],"_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":"Lester captured my attention a couple of seasons ago with her proving #sizedontmatter when you can play.
