Kayley is extremely versatile on both ends and impacts the game in a multitude of ways. She has a ton of upside and is on a D1 trajectory. I see her being higher on the list when the next update rolls around. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["743657"],"_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-66fcb2fdd77f8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='743657' first='Caroline' last='McCurry'] comes from a strong pedigree and basketball runs in her DNA. Her father is Jared McCurry the former Bellarmine University star and overseas pro. Her younger sister Charlotte is also one of the top 8th graders in the state. Caroline has a great feel for the game. She is a excellent passer, has picture-perfect footwork in the post, and is pretty much automatic from the mid-range. She averaged 7.4 points and 4.8 rebounds a game as a freshman and I expect her numbers to go up this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["743674"],"_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-66fcb2fdd7838"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I watched [player_tooltip player_id='743674' first='Riley' last='Eberhard'] a couple times over the summer and I walked away impressed each time. She is very versatile and shows the ability to score from anywhere on the floor. Riley is a great passer, high IQ player, who can handle the ball like a guard, and knows how to make her presence felt on the defensive end.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["727414"],"_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-66fcb2fdd7879"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I liked what I saw from Zoe at the Kentucky Expo last month. She has a really good shooting touch from the mid-range and scores very well around the rim. Zoe is a great post defender and has enough later quickness to guard the perimeter as well.

[player_tooltip player_id='736963' first='Jozie' last='Allen'] was the 2nd leading scorer (12.2 PPG) and rebounder (6.9 RPG) for the Lady Hornets last season. Jozie scores at a high percentage in the post and can space the floor with her perimeter shooting. She can also guard positions 1-5 on defense. She is another player that I see being higher on the list when the next update rolls around.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
