<p>As we get ready for the high school season (I know it's still months away but a girl can't help it), I'm wanting to dive into who will be able to make some more deep runs in the playoffs next season that we saw in the final week of the NCHSAA season. I've already written about the reigning 4A champions, but let's dive into the 4A teams like McDowell and Hoggard that are hoping to be back in the big spotlight next season.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='509876' first='Lyla' last='Bagwell'] has some great talent on the court being able to knock down her shot from anywhere around the perimeter, and she isn't shy about doing so with hands in her face. She runs the offensive sets for her team bringing the ball up and seeing the floor knowing which plays to run. Outside of her talent, her leadership truly sets her apart with how she communicates both on and off the court and consistently plays with high energy.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1221166' first='Nicole' last='Amend'] has a range of moves that she can use to get her some points. She can handle the ball using power dribbles to get into position and score some points. She is quick with her footwork in the paint going to work and battling against anyone to bank it off the glass. She can also help Bagwell with her shooting from deep, and her cuts into the open space cutting to the basket allow her teammates to hit her with an easy entry pass.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1219915' first='Kimora' last='Stewart'] is a fun player to watch as she can handle things on both ends for her team. She meets anyone on defense in her wide stance moving laterally to block their path and knock the ball away. These deflections turn into steals that she can take the other direction. On offense, she's dangerous from around the perimeter and she uses her athleticism to make impressive moves scoring her jumpers from all over the court.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='772574' first='Khloe' last='Joyner'] has been busy talking to college coaches and for good reason. She has great height that allows her to play and guard a range of positions. She can use her ball handling as a guard spinning her way in the paint to score some points, and she's another sharp shooter from deep. She's quick on her feet using her wide stance and quickness to show off post moves to battle on the block. Her vision is apparent the way she loses her defender, finds the open, and is ready to score off the pass.</p>
