Where Rivers may have some of the better individual matchups, Berkshire's overall unity can be just the balanced attack to combat that. Theres also some young talent sprinkled in there to look forward to. Another factor is how Berkshire's wings respond to the challenge of matching or slowing down premier wing attackers. On the other hand, Berkshire has an x-factor frontcourt talent that could very well be the answer down the stretch. This'll surely be an intriguing duel in route towards the championship.

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='273927' first='Grace' last='O'Sullivan'] (2025) | 6'0 Wing | Rivers </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>O'Sullivan has been a key element for Rivers and featured heavily in their important wins. The Princeton commit has measured attacks that are skillfully crafted. She's one of the steadiest scorers on the team and gets clean looks off regardless of the defense's response. Grace's silky smooth shooting ability mixed with unshakable takes off the dribble make her a tough wing to stop. Her experience will come into play in Saturday's matchup and considering the significance of this game, a player as capable as O'Sullivan is needed to get over the hump. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='412221' first='Evi' last='Higgins'] (2025) | 6'0 Guard/Wing | Berkshire</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>These are the games where Higgins will have ample opportunity to shine. The sniper-like capacity will be called upon in a game where Berkshire will need some offensive firepower. Higgins doesn't just throw up anything, she finds shots within the offense and finds a groove quickly. Considering her proficiency to shoot within the halfcourt, Rivers will need refute her abilities early on which can be a hard ask. Higgins is a patient player that can come alive at any time because of her unruffled nature. The senior knows exactly where she can affect the game in developed sets. Look for her to be a reliable outlet for lane penetrators as well as a solid defender that'll hold her own. Evi can be a contributing factor to Berkshire pulling out the win. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='987487' first='Natalia' last='Hall-Rosa'] 6'0 Wing | Rivers </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Natalia will be likely called upon on offense to take over on the offensive end. The commanding attention she gets when manufacturing takes will open things up for her teammates. Hall-Rosa can play finesse or physical, so her abilities won't be hindered in a playoff situation. Her playmaking DNA will make her incredibly important to contain. Not only effective on offense though, but her tendency to also make the right play on defense will be appealing. The Seton Hall commit is made for these hostile playoff environments; many times, Natailia has seized the moment in high stakes conditions. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='987659' first='Chase' last='Anderson'] (2025) | Forward | Rivers </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Chase can certainly be a determining factor in this duel. The Rivers' forward has been consistent all season long bringing impactful 2-way play every second she's on the floor. Anderson can guard a few positions without a worry, so this'll be useful down the stretch. She typically has a mismatch on her on offense due to her shooting ability requires the defense to expand out beyond the 3-pointline. Anderson's tendency to make the right play can't be overlooked. Her efficiency is attributable to the senior's experience. Anticipate for Chase to bring her sturdy inside & out methods. She'll unquestionably have a hand in influencing this game. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Pear Dickson (2027) | 6'4 C | Berkshire</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Its' unclear whether or not Rivers will have an answer for Dickson. The sheer physique and powerful presence around the paint is absolutely governing. At 6'4 Pearl has the size to shape the way this game goes; she's regularly challenging most shots within the lane and snatches boards off the glass. If Pearl can also capitalize on scoring opportunities around the rim, this is a game that can be controlled by Berkshire. </p>
