Lauren is a big guard with a solid handle, and a very productive step back. Big time shooter (8 games with 7+ 3PM), and can score in bunches ( 7 games of 30+ this season). Very quick release, and will pull in a defenders face the minute a hand drops.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1060598"],"_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-6791398ec59f5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Caitlin has shown growth year over year, averaging 24ppg this season, 8 more than her avg as a sophomore. Caitlin is a volume shooter averaging almost 12 3PA per game, while knocking down an impressive 30%. She does a great job being shot ready and always on the move to find an open window. She's displayed the ability to shoot efficiently coming off a screen, the bounce, and the catch. Caitlin also finds energy to fly around the defensive end causing havoc as the teams leader in steals! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["574423"],"_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-6791398ec5a38"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Adyra is another big time shooter in the class of 2026. More importantly Adyra is an efficient shooter: Currently #3 in the NATION in 3PM (112), while also shooting 40% from 3. I was impressed with her IQ and decision making offensively. Short close out she will knock down 3, long close out she will rip and attack the basket on balance. High ceiling guard! </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":"Aniyah Venegas","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"12125","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Golden West ","_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-6791398ec5ac9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Aniyah is another 2026 making a big jump from last season, averaging 23ppg, 15 more than her sophomore avg! Unlike many of the other top scorers in the state, Aniyah is getting it done inside the arc more than out. She attacks the basket at will, and will make you pay if you foul (77% FT). Great rebounding guard, especially on the offensive glass (Over 4 OREB per game). She works her tail off on defense and the glass to create easy transition opportunities. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["574422"],"_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-6791398ec5b0c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jackie is a super crafty smooth guard with a tight handle who can get going quick. Watch your ankles around her! A very smooth midrange game and an efficient 3ball (37%) has helped propel her to being a top 5 scorer this season (23.5ppg). She's been catching fire this January, including hitting 7 3's the game I watched, many from well behind the college line! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
