<!-- wp:list -->
<ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>#31 Isabelle Fernandez - Izzy was all over the court throughout the tournament. She displayed her ability to attack the rim, knock down the long ball, and facilitate the offense when needed. Crafty type of scorer. <br></li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>#68 [player_tooltip player_id='944743' first='Carly' last='Koch'] - Koch does not let her size alter the way she approaches a possession. She's confident.<br></li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>#202 [player_tooltip player_id='875440' first='Sadie' last='Webb'] - Still one of the fastest kids with the ball in this class, Webb has it on a string and plays like it's her last possession on every possession. She's just as aggressive on the defensive side.<br></li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>#207 Ryan Horvath - Active kid with good length, showing impressive foot speed as well.<br></li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>#208 [player_tooltip player_id='882155' first='Caitlin' last='Sandridge'] - One of those players that knows how to cover a lot of space, especially on the defensive side of the ball. She was in constant motion. <br></li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>#215 Maddie Austin - Austin displays her athleticism on every drive. She can get to the paint in just a couple of moves and shows no fear when attacking the basket.<br></li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>#230 Maria Ventura - On the defensive side of the ball, Maria can be a problem for guards. She's long, aware, and active.<br></li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>#232 [player_tooltip player_id='958462' first='Keniya' last='Foster'] - Foster shows glimpses of being a commanding point guard. She has patience when bringing the ball up and displays the same control on the defensive side.<br></li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>#570 Sophie Darwish - One of those players that flies under the radar if you don't know what you're looking for. She does all the little things that a team can benefit from.<br></li>
<!-- /wp:list-item -->
<!-- wp:list-item -->
<li>#593 [player_tooltip player_id='875080' first='Chrysanthie' last='Kamarinos'] - Solid hands around the rim and shows good mobility. Nice form from the free throw line as well.</li>
