Chins the ball, keeps high as she pivots looking for an open look. She is a <strong><em>bully</em> on the boards!</strong> Her strength level entering high school gives her an edge over girls her age. Teams will throw their best defenders at her nightly to shut her down and I'm excited to see her grow her game as an elite scorer.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

The goal of the PGH Freshman showcase was to evaluate everyone! Prep Girls Hoops Georgia evaluator Shayla Smith and I divvied up teams in an effort to evaluate each player in attendance.
