<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Just within this last week there've been a number of girls showing out. As the season progresses it's imperative to promptly highlight those that are well deserved of being spotlighted. These girls discussed have had some above average performances lately that need to be mentioned. Below are 5 players who've had standout games within the last week.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Use code<strong> MBG30 </strong>for 30% off your first purchase of any subscription.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["802977"],"_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-676063dd585b7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ava has been one of Mount Saint Charles' most outstanding players up to this point. She's making a name for herself as a freshman force to consider from all teams to come. While fulfilling the expectations of a top player in the class, Ayotte has had plenty of imposing showings so far. In the MCS vs Austin Prep game Ayotte was spectacular. The Mounties cashed in on 12 3-pointers and Ava led the pack with 6 of those. Her prominent ability to create her own shot was on full display while getting on a roll swiftly. The shots came with extreme confidence, which led to her getting behind the primary layer of the defense for a nice in-between shot. Her high-powered scoring efforts allowed MSC to pull off the upset win over Austin Prep.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='1111036' first='Aisha' last='Salem Hassan']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'8u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"12121","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Sacred Heart Greenwich ","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-676063dd5868e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://x.com/aishasalem24">[player_tooltip player_id='1111036' first='Aisha' last='Salem Hassan']</a> (2025) | 5'8 CG | Sacred Heart Greenwich </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Aisha was the team's leading scorers in a blowout win vs Holy Child. Although the team's precedence was set on the backs of Coach Ayo's stifling defensive scheme, Aisha's fiery potency made her the game high scorer with 18 points. She also provided 10 rebounds, 5 assists and ended the game with 0 turnovers. The most impressive detail was Salem Hassan's efficiency. She scored all 18 points shooting 75% from the field. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Arkansas commit has made great strides thus far at demonstrating to be in the upper-class at the position. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["428116"],"_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-676085e3a8084"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='428116' first='Lily' last='Sokol'] (2026) | 5'8 Wing | Rocky Hill Country Day</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lily was Rocky Hill's top player in their win vs Williams. The score was lopsided and thanks to Sokal's 24 pt, 17 reb, 4 ast and 2 bl game, RHCD was able to get the comfortable win. Lily's all-around ability presented itself as a major staple in the team's success. She was capable of getting to her shots near the rim, fed others and succeeded to connect on some 3-pointers as well. Sokol showed the ability to flourish on the defensive end too with her persistent play throughout. She made it her point to get her hand on the ball to cause a couple deflections and even came up with some steals from those same disruptions. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1005125"],"_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-676085e3a80d0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Joy Robinson (2028) | 5'7 CG/ Wing | Rivers </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Joy made it to this list not for her statistics, but for her efforts put forth as a young player contributing to team wins. She's been a big surprise in the class by becoming somewhat of an over achiever. Without the hype that comes with being at the top of the class, she has been able to come onto the high school scene and carve out impactful minutes for herself. In the latest game watched vs St. Mark's, Joy's 6pts 4reb 1ast and 1stl game seriously pitched in for the team win. Every minute is treasured; she made the most out of her time on the floor. Robinson wasn't backing down from the high intensity competitive nature the grade a upperclassman she shared the court with. Even though the stats didn't jump out, the aggressiveness couldn't be denied, especially in some measures as an underrated freshman. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1045923"],"_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-676085e3a8111"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1045923' first='Koharu' last='Tanaka'] (2026) | 5'6 CG | Dana Hall </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Koharu contributed an influential 16 points in the game vs Lexington Christian Academy. The Dana Hall guard seems to be locked in early on this season. Tanaka was able to find her shot while being the primary focus of the defense. She showed blazing speed while controlling her tempo in the right times to get the edge over the defenders. Her shot fell from beyond the 3-pointline and when she made decisions to get to the lane, she was able to thrive by relentlessly driving to her left hand. Her finishing showed to be elite even with defenders draped all over her. Tanaka provided stately rebounding that allowed her to then push the pace down to the floor. She was also a variable factor on the defensive side of the ball. Her dynamic ability shined bright by being a pest and causing confusion. Koharu put the pressure on the opposing team all game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

Just within this last week there've been a number of girls showing out. As the season progresses it's imperative to promptly highlight those that are well deserved of being spotlighted. These girls discussed have had some above average performances lately that need to be mentioned. Below are 5 players who've had standout games within the last week.
