Coach Mo’s Top Performers | PGH Freshman Texas

<!-- wp:quote --> <blockquote class="wp-block-quote"><!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Haltom High School played host to the PGH Freshman Texas Showcase this past Labor Day Sunday and the class of 2028 was putting in work. The energy in the gym swelled somewhere between high confidence, quiet assessments, and an obvious love for the game. Through hours of gameplay, constant coach, teammate, and condition changes; the following top performers were consistently good throughout the day. There may even be a few "immediate impact players" in the mix, ready to make waves for their respective high schools.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --></blockquote> <!-- /wp:quote --> <!-- wp:quote --> <blockquote class="wp-block-quote"><!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["985947"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":986886,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66d90be446665"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A tenacious team player, [player_tooltip player_id='985947' first='Xianna' last='Felan'] is included in Top Performers because her attitude, energy, and effort never wavered. Felen is the kind of player that sparks her teammates with constant communication and no-look passes. She reminds opponents not to counter her out with high level post-footwork at a listed 5'2"! X maintained her positive attitude, along with her form shot on the long ball, making every step to the rim intentional.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --></blockquote> <!-- /wp:quote --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["985934"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":986890,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66d91adc1cd1d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kailey could easily align with standout shooters with her own elite level long range dagger of a shot. She's an assasin that requires minimal space. Guidry continuously put herself and her teammates in positions to be a bucket. Guidry has the potential to be an immediate impact player, she'll make an excellent compliment to the rising class of guards at Manvel.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["985928"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66d92ff9b2bde"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Standing just shy of 6 feet and four years of high school ahead of her, the future looks scary good! Jayda plays and defends 1-5, utilizing multiple finishes, connecting on rhythmic jump shots off the bounce, and finishing through and with traffic. Jayda shoots the ball well but handles it better. She is communicative on both ends of the floor but is a block-diminishing defender. [player_tooltip player_id='985928' first='Jayda' last='Byrd'] is a top-tier talent.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["985912"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":986907,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66d92ff9b2c8d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">An excellent ball handler, Evans attacks are deceptively simplistic. She already understands "less is more" and thus she doesn't waste a dribble. Diving, slashing and disrupting the defense, Evans will be an absolute immediate impact player at Vanguard. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["935789"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66d92ff9b2d09"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Blayklee dominated the 3v3 games, displaying a range of skills with seemingly minimal effort. Hovering mid-air and then letting the ball go for the eight to ten foot jumper. Reed possess incredible body control with a 6 foot frame. Not to mention she is going to grow into her growth, and the jump shot coming, she is one to watch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["885891"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66d91adc1ce40"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Wilson had a slow start in the 3v3, finding her stride later in the match-ups. During 5v5 however, Jada was an absolute terror for opponents. She grabs the board and goes coast-to-coast, sets up the finish with a spin move in the center of the lane with a double-pump float finish over the front of the rim. Ole Miss, didn't miss with this one. I imagine Jada will be an immediate impact player for Hebron. Either way she'll continue to grow into all of her greatness, because her best is yet to come. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
