When you have a seamless and one motion type of shooting form, it opens up a ton of scoring abilities simply because the form is picture perfect. Outside of her shooting ability, she can score at the rim as well. Her length and no fear type of attitude has always stood out. She could do some damage at the next level if she lands in the right hands in the right system. </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["773806"],"_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-688a877654a3d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>Ramel has been the scoring force behind Rolling Meadows for the past couple of seasons, and I don't expect a drop off going into her senior year. She's a player who allows her instincts to take over and doesn't truly hesitate before making a play or taking a shot. She has a solid frame to her as well. A big senior year is ahead for this kid. </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["663105"],"_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-688a877654a83"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>Gilbertson's length and versatility are key to why she's a focal point on her Lake Zurich team, and a huge reason why Ferris State sees her as a strong part of their future.

She's one of those players that you can put the ball in her hand and tell her to carry the team, or she can be a complementary piece to a system that requires effective players at all positions. She's versatile, she's athletic, and she's a coach's dream. Will definitely be adding some more Hononegah games to the scouting schedule this season.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
