<p>"DAWG! Best on ball defender in the state and a true leader. She is someone you can trust on and off the court. Her soccer background puts her in great positions. Excels at tone, pressure, and spacing."</p>

<p>"D1 Athlete. Physical specimen and a rim protector that doesn't let anything come easy in the paint. Great touch for her size, she had a game where she hit five 3's this summer. Injuries plagued her this summer but she has the highest ceiling on the team."</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"Best player on this squad who leveled up this summer and became a true floor general. She is a 3 level scorer and has a mid-range pull-up jumper that is pure and unteachable. She plays bigger than her size and missed shots or any other adversity don't get to her. She is relentless in the pursuit of winning games and competing. She plays in a flow/rhythm that makes everyone else around her better."</p>

<p>"Biggest growth of anyone on the team this summer. She has a wiry build but is tough as nails. She is relentless at attacking the basket. She gets her hands on everything defensively and runs like a deer. She found her confidence on the offensive end this summer and her upside is huge!</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"She can guard positions 1-5. She is a top 3 best overall athlete on this team. Stands at 6'0" tall but can switch onto guards and lock up. She is a tough rebounder and runs the floor well. She plays with true team-first mentality."</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"She is a DAWG and scrappy as they come. She is the type of hooper that will dive after every loose ball, takes charges, rebounds, and loves contact. She is a knock down 3 point shooter and doesn't back down from anything. She attacks the rim with aggression and understands how to make the extra pass. She finds what role she needs to take on from game to game and is a true WARRIOR."</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"Great mix of length, speed, and size. Has a quick twitch on both ends and has a huge wingspan to go along with her 5'11" height. She has a smooth stroke from the 3pt line and a quick release. Sometimes she is a little too unselfish and is a great passer. She has big upside."</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"She is a glue girl who tore her ACL in our second tournament of the season. She was at every practice, workout, and tournament after that showing how much of a hard-nosed individual she is that understands what hard work is. She comes from a hard-working family and quickly took on the role of "Coach K" and helped me throughout games from the coaching side."</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"She is different and is just starting to scratch the surface of what she can and will do as a hooper. She joined the team in late June after a few injuries were sustained. She didn't know our plays but it didn't matter as she is a pure PLAYMAKER from a small town. Her athleticism puts her in great spots and can bail her out of bad situations as well. She has a knack for scoring and making plays. She has huge hands an wingspan and a game that speaks volumes. She found her passion and love for basketball and will be a college hooper. She has one of the highest ceilings on this team.</p>

<p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Coach's Comments: </strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>"This was a fun season full of opportunity and growth. The girls trusted each other, trusted the program, and trusted their parents. Injuries haunted us but we overcame adversity by embracing the next one up mentality. A few things this group improved on were togetherness, ball movement, and toughness. Our top shooter this summer was [player_tooltip player_id='802006' first='Ruby' last='Moore']. She is a 3 level scorer and a great athlete who has a tempo and pace unlike anyone I have coached. She understands how to get others involved , but understands she is the best playmaker on the court at anytime. Karli Bosma was our best rebounder. She is gritty and tough and she just has a sense of where her shooters will miss. She plays and rebounds bigger than she is. Our best defensive player was Karli Bosma. Her soccer background mixed with toughness and leadership allows her to single handedly change the game by her presence on the defensive end. She's a true warrior. This team is gritty and showed great overall growth and maturity. This season was filled with adversity from roster changes to injuries. We trusted the highs and lows and we focused on process oriented rather than result oriented. If you can't play hard and communicate you simply can't play. Shots will come and go, turnovers come and go, bad officials come and go. Trust it." - Coach Entringer</p>
