This athlete gets after it on both ends of the floor at all times! She's a point guard that knows exactly how to lead a team. She can play off the ball well too. She consistently knocked down open 3's for her team. Addi is a good ball handler with a great understanding of the game. She may be one of the most underrated athletes in the state, but she impressed MANY people that watched her during the Elite 80! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["821829"],"_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-66e86ce6b3380"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Brylee is the total package! She continues to check off all of the boxes to not only be a player at the next level, but a STAR at the next level! Every college coach should be all over this kid. Flatt was not going to be denied this Elite 80 championship. It didn't matter what the other team threw at her, she made the correct plays. She beat defenders down the floor, off the dribble, and with her elite passing. I love her ability to create offense for herself and others! She's long, athletic, and one of the savviest athletes! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["816600"],"_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-66e86ce6b33bf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">To be honest, Burchard was on FIRE all day long from 3 point land! She knocked down shot after shot and she has proven that she is a consistent 3 point shooter! She has great size, standing at 6 foot! A solid rim protector that will make you alter your shot. I was extremely impressed with Jenna and her overall game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["816717"],"_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-66e86ce6b33fe"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Team Aqua doesn't pull out a win without the entire team and the defensive plays by [player_tooltip player_id='816717' first='Jacy' last='Cox']! Cox can go coast to coast extremely fast! One of my favorite plays of the entire day was when Jacy picked up one of her many steals to go coast to coast! I love elite defenders! If an opponent is dribbling, Cox is making them work for every inch of ground! Cox has the desire, the discipline, and the instinct. Jacy can score 20 points, but her defense is going to take her to the next level, and her defensive passion is going to set her a part from so many athletes! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["912874"],"_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-66e86ce6b343a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jaylen's a champion. It's in her blood! If you were going to bet against anyone, would you really bet against Drazkowski and Team Aqua? Jaylen understands her role and she excels in it. I have spoken before about her beautiful outside shot! If she wasn't scoring, she was helping put her team in a position to score. She provided her team with numerous rebounds in key situations! Jaylen has great court awareness. You have to love how she never stops working! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Emina Katana","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2029","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"12125","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Farragut MS","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66e86ce6b34c5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Emina was the youngest athlete on her team! The middle schooler stepped up and knocked down a few open 3 balls for her team. I loved the fact that she was not afraid of any moment while she was on the court with kids much older than her. I have no doubt that this young one will keep working and we will be talking about her more over the years! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["893201"],"_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-66e86ce6b3507"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I had no idea that Phillips was a Class of '29! One of the team's unsung heroes. Kennady has a strong build and knows exactly how to play to her strengths! She moves well without the ball and she has a great understanding of the game. She defends well and rebounds exceptionally well! One of my favorite plays from Kennady was getting two offensive rebounds and finding the open teammate for the assist. Phillips has tremendous upside! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
