Heart of Texas: Sophomore Spotlight

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>From some of Oklahoma's finest, to new names emerging, here's six Oklahomans that caught the eye while watching back more Heart of Texas games. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["881182"],"_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-681292f1dd183"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">In the game watched, Woolsey beat up the opposition on the glass. Even on offensive rebounds attempts, she's often first to the ball with her quickness and tenacity. Was automatic from 6 foot in, finishing fluidly with both hands. And she has great chemistry with her high school and AAU teammate, Cauthron. One of the more steady performers in 2027, who always leaves her mark on games. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["866548"],"_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-681292f1dd253"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cauthron continues to be one of the most exciting players in Oklahoma. Lightning in transition, she's also a killer in the halfcourt. Especially via dribble hand offs from Woolsey, which seem to act as a speed power up. As she would somehow look even faster while getting downhill and to the rim. Had her customary highlight reel passes with outstanding vision and accuracy. There were a couple turnovers from trying to do too much, but the overall game changing ability she brings as a scorer and creator shined the brightest. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["910307"],"_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-681292f1dd309"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Slagle is a "Bet on Production" prospect. She's skilled, tough and finds ways to produce. Especially as she is starting to expand her all around game, with better handles. The improvements there are leading to her being more of a 3/4, and a potential match up nightmare. She's too strong for guards and crafty enough to attack taller players off the bounce. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She's also smart off the ball mover. Sets good screens and rolls with fluidity and purpose to the basket. Wasn't the best shooting performance for her in the game watched, but previous viewings have indicated the three point shooting is firmly part of her bag. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["606265"],"_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-681292f1dd3b3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">In the game watched, she slotted into more of a role as a shooter and key part of CyFair's relentless press. Her defensive abilities are well known, as she's quick, disruptive and reads the game well. It was especially encouraging to see "YaYa" hit threes and mid-range jumpers. After watching her have strong shooting performances with Glenpool this winter, it might be time for the exciting guard to also be known as one of the better shooters in Oklahoma too. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["918250"],"_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-681292f1dd455"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Little things can quickly add up. From being in the passing lane to picking up aggressively on the ball, Boulware made her mark in a tough defensive minded contest. To be cliche, she fit the Junkyard Dawg mentality of her problem. Even hustling for loose balls, then firing outlets to teamamtes. It's always fun to see young players embrace and excell in their role. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1228280"],"_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-681292f1dd4f5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Athletic attacker, who showed some burst when getting downhill. Strong and fluid as a driver and finisher In the slugfest contest watched, she was quieter as a shooter. But a quick check of her Huld page shows that she can knock down triples. As she played a key role for a Holland Hall team that was heavy on seniors. There's the upside for Toliver to have a bigger role this winter. While for now, she makes for an interesting and intriguing duo for her CyFair squad with fellow 918 athlete Herron. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
