Her leadership and production has been a big part of the Lady Wildcat's success this season, and this team has built a lot of moment riding a 7-game win streak going into the postseason. I think they should not be overlooked whatsoever. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["885318"],"_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-67b966b5ce74e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">LaReesha surpassed the 2,000-point mark in a win over Glasgow this week, to go along with 1,000 career rebounds. The 2x 4th Region Player of the Year, and Miss Basketball Candidate is having a dominant senior season, averaging 21 points and 11 rebounds per game while leading her team to a 23-2 record. LaReesha is super-talented plus experienced and I think she is ready for redemption after falling just short last year. Franklin-Simpson is the top team in the 4th region and they will be hard to handle in the postseason.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1199743"],"_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-67b966b5ce7ff"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Warren East is catching fire at the right time and haven't lost a game since mid January.

She may be a bit small in stature, but she makes a big impact on ends of the floor for the Lady Raiders.
