<p class="text-gray-700">McQuiston showed why she is on the verge of a breakout junior season. She played with phenomenal pace and picked her spots where to attack offensively. She was hitting from three, getting to the mid-range as well as attacking the basket.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">You could see the growth in Roger's game as her skill level is catching up with athletic ability. She can go by most defenders any time she wants but at the EXPO her play making skills were on display. Add in the fact she was hitting perimeter shots; we saw why she is one of the more complete guards in the state. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Mulvanny, who is possibly the most athletic player in the state, got downhill often and was very effective. Her energy on both ends of the court is hard to match and it showed in her rebounding and shot blocking. She often got the rebound and went coast to coast resulting in a positive play. Expect her recruiting to continue to soar. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Gross is one of the top players in SOAZ and she came to put in work. She played exceptionally well as she displayed a tight handle and showed the ability to pull the trigger on her jump shot very quick. On defense she had quick hands and played the passing lanes well. Her role will increase this season even more for her Sunnyside squad. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Molinar played well above her age and at times looked like the best player out there. She is a pure floor general and looked to put pressure on the defense constantly. She knocked down perimeter shots as well as handing out some very nice assists. Elleigh also played very good on-ball defense and made it tough for opposing ball handlers. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Leila is another SOAZ representative who came and played well. She used her body exceptionally well to keep defenders at a distance. She also finished well thru contact drawing quite a few fouls. At times she rebounded the ball and initiated the offense showing versatility. She flourished in the open court and once she got going downhill it was problems for the defense. </p>
