She has excellent handles and can take care of the ball for her team in press situations and find her teammates in the open court. Scoring is not a problem for Brooklyn, she can get points at all three levels. She is tough and can get all the way to the basket for buckets, plus her jumper is efficeint from mid-range and from behind the arch. Defensively, Shaefer brings the energy. She uses her quickness to get her hands on dribbles and in the passing lanes. Brooklyn isn't afraid to get in the paint and battle with bigger post players for sneaky steals and rebounds. Keep an eye on Schaefer this grassroots summer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["898234"],"_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-67f1be4b52ae7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Listed at 5'9", Harper can get it done at every position on the court. She fits right in with the guards. EJ is quick to the basket, she can finish strong and get to free throw line. She can also hit the 2pt and 3pt jumpers for the scores that her team needs. Harper can also play with the post players in the paint. She isnt afraid to play with her back to the basket to get tough in the paint buckets and she can rebound easily among taller players. On defense, EJ can also get stops all over the court. She is long on the wing and gets steals from traps, in the passing lanes and even from paint players. Harper doing the important little things like diving for loose balls and talking on the court will keep her solid all summer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["968123"],"_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-67f1be4b52b48"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Quick, smart and tough are just a few words that can be used to describe Jaimes. When she gets her eyes on the basket, there isnt very much that is going to stop her. She has the handles to get past defenders in the open court and to get to the paint in traffic. Evelynn can also get buckets from pull-up jumpers in the mid-range and from 3pt, she is truly an offensive threat. On D, Jaimes has a great IQ to get in the passing lanes and get sneaky steals from behind. She can get down in a stance and stay with dribblers and close out to shooters, she is a lockdown defender. Jaimes has all the skills to make this an exciting exposure season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1214223"],"_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-67f1be4b52b92"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">As a PG/SG Brenner checks all of the boxes. On the defensive end she is always a part of the action. Whether its in traps, steals on the wings or tie-ups in the paint, she is everywhere. Even at 5'6", Brenner is going to get in the paint for boards on both ends. Marli is also a force on offense. She can hit shots from mid-range and from behind the three point line to get points. And she isn't afaid to get to the basket in traffic for a strong finish or to get to the free throw line. Brenner is going to be exciting to watch throughout the summer months and beyond. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["904672"],"_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-67f1be4b52bd9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kenley is a guard that you can count on at both ends of the court. She has great dribbles and is strong with the ball in her hands. At 5'5" she uses that strength to get to the paint for layups or pull up jumper points, she scores well from both. Addison is also mobile on the perimeter to find her open shot in the mid-range or from behind the arch. On defense Addison is equally reliable. She is tough in traps and getting stops on dribblers. She is in the passing lanes getting steals. Kenley is even in the paint giving taller post players a hard time with ever turn. Addison is that guard that is going to keep things exciting for the whole grassroots season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
