Samantha is a skilled point guard with strong ball-handling skills, consistently knocking down multiple threes. She moves well without the ball, positioning herself for open shots and finding the right angle to feed the post or set up plays. Her ability to drive and kick adds versatility to her game, while her tough-to-guard spin move and athletic finishes around the rim make her a constant scoring threat. Samantha also excels in transition with sharp passing and uses her defensive presence to rack up multiple blocks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["502310"],"_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-6706ce026d298"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mags is a dedicated guard and a lights-out shooter, constantly honing her craft in the gym. She showcased her range with a smooth step-back three from the top of the key and added versatility with a baseline rip, finishing with a soft floater. As a leader on the floor, Mags is always communicating and directing her teammates, making her presence felt both with her scoring and leadership.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["734924"],"_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-6706ce026d2e0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ella is a hardworking post player who excels at sealing her defender to establish a strong position in the paint. She battles on the glass at both ends of the floor, consistently grabbing rebounds. With solid footwork around the rim, Ella finishes effectively with both hands, making her a reliable scoring option down low.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["734926"],"_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-6706ce026d32a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ryan is a strong guard for Hudsonville. She is great at driving through the lane and finishing strong, even when facing contact. She showed her finesse with a smooth euro-step finish, which adds versatility to her scoring. In transition, Ryan is a skilled passer, easily setting up her teammates. Her toughness shines on the defensive end, where she consistently applies pressure.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["735329"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":1046861,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6706ce026d382"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Myah, a point guard for Wyoming, is a shifty ball-handler with the ball on a string, making her tough to guard. Her intensity on defense stands out, as she's a pesky defender with quick hands and relentless energy. Offensively, Myah shows excellent body control when driving through the lane, and her scoring arsenal includes a smooth mid-range jumper and a lethal step-back three-pointer. She uses her quickness and agility to create opportunities for herself and her team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
