Her team played DME academy and she put on a show in front of a lot of power 5 coaches and the rest was history! Payton racked up a number of strong offers which a lot of the schools wanted her to attend school early. She decided to stay home and she reclassified to the 2024 class and now is at UVA!<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["925888"],"_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-66fb1c46e1a62"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Last season was [player_tooltip player_id='925888' first='Die' last='J Diop'] first year in the states playing for S3 academy.
