She surpassed 1,000 career points a few games ago and is a big reason that 3rd seeded Dickinson Trinity was able to sneak into the State Tournament. She is a big body and runs the floor well. She moves her feet and is able to keep opponents in front of her defensively. She can step out and hit the outside jumper as well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1096041"],"_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-67c722d71633d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I like Lillianna's game.&nbsp; She is a steady forward who is tough defensively and able to battle around the rim.&nbsp; She is a great rebounder and does a good job pursuing boards.&nbsp; She keeps the ball high on passes from teammates and offensive rebounds.&nbsp; Her hands are always ready to receive passes, a skill that is overlooked in posts.&nbsp; She has had a very nice season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["935271"],"_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-67c722d71638f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">BriElle is extremely athletic and was key to Maple River's great season.&nbsp; She runs the floor hard and is a great rim-runner.&nbsp; She does the little things well, like securing key boxouts for defensive rebounds.&nbsp; She has good hands and anticipation defensively.&nbsp; She is also good at playing out of the high post.&nbsp; BriElle had an excellent senior season for the Raiders.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["412234"],"_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-67c722d7163de"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Erin is an athletic guard who is key to Bottineau forcing turnovers with their half-court defense.  She does a very good job of attacking the ball handler and making them make a decision.  This often times results in the pass being passed to a spot where Bottineau can trap and hopefully force a turnover.  Once a turnover is forced, Erin is a nice option offensively from behind the arc.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["956238"],"_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-67c722d71642b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jailin is another great player for Thompson who has embraced her role on her team.  Not everyone can be a star, but everyone can be a star in their role, and Jailin is a star in her role.  She defends bigger girls throughout the game and does a great job of boxing out and rebounding.  She is always locked in defensively and has great effort when crashing the glass on the offensive end.  She is what I call a great ‘glue' player and is critical to any team winning games.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1090543"],"_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-67c722d716478"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kendra is a great leader and was voted team captain for the Sheyenne Mustangs.&nbsp; She has worked herself into a key reserve role and is shooting a team high 36% from behind the three-point line.&nbsp; Her ability to knock down shots and stretch the floor has been key to Sheyenne improving this season.&nbsp; She is a steady defender and doesn't make a lot of mistakes.&nbsp; I really appreciate Kendra's leadership and how hard she plays.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["459955"],"_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-67c722d7164c7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Emma recently committed to play college basketball at Hiram College.  Hiram is getting a post who can play inside and out and one who is not afraid to shoot from behind the arc.  Emma is averaging about 12 points per game and 7 rebounds per game.  She has good size and is able to battle with the posts in the EDC.  She is an excellent free throw shooter and one is able to draw a lot of fouls during a game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
