Among her many strengths, her three-point shooting stands out as a key weapon in her scoring package. She demonstrates confidence, range, and shot versatility from beyond the arc, making her a consistent threat whenever the ball is in her hands. Mattie had a great showing with 13 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["981283"],"_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-680720e0148ff"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Natalie is a high-IQ, composed, and skilled guard who brings a balanced blend of scoring, playmaking, and leadership to the floor. Her ability to stretch the defense with her three-point shooting, combined with her vision and unselfishness as a facilitator, makes her the engine of her team's offense. Natalie leads both vocally and by example, setting the tone with her poise and competitive edge.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1227637"],"_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-680720e014950"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Caroline is a high-level perimeter threat who brings precision, poise, and relentless consistency as a shooter. Known for her quick release and sharpshooter mentality, she excels in catch-and-shoot situations and is always a step ahead with her positioning and shot preparation. Caroline's offensive discipline and shooting IQ make her one of the most reliable scoring options on the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1227634"],"_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-680720e014992"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Izzy is a unique and impactful player who brings a rare blend of size, skill, and defensive intensity to the floor. While she played primarily as a big throughout the tournament, she possesses the ball-handling, vision, and decision-making of a true guard. Her ability to operate both inside and outside makes her a matchup nightmare on offense — and a game-changer on the defensive end.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["901369"],"_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-680720e0149d2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Caroline is one of the purest and most fluid shooters on the floor, with a natural stroke and a high-level understanding of how to create separation without the ball. Her ability to relocate, read defensive positioning, and knock down shots with precision makes her an invaluable floor-spacer and scoring weapon in any offensive system.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
