EJ’s Cape Atlantic Underrated Starting 5

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Put a little more respect on these five! They're coming out this season guns blazing, ready to show everyone exactly what they're capable of in South Jersey's CAL. You'll want to know these names and keep close tabs!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1198659' first='Katelyn' last='Coryell'] | OLMA</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Her ability to easily transition between the 1 and 2 makes her dangerous in the back court. We've seen her go borderline unconscious from 3 at times, while also switching it up and assuming the role of facilitator other times. She can feed the post with well-placed entry passes and rack up easy assists that way. Her ball movement continues to improve, with last year being the best on paper racking up forty-three assists in twenty-eight games. But, if a clutch bucket is needed, then look no further. She balances scoring and passing really well, ready to make an impact regardless.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='865920' first='Trinitee' last='McKellar'] | Atlantic Tech</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Trinitee's been on an upward trajectory since the summer running with Mid-Atlantic Heat. I saw some things in her game that really stood out, more so than even in high school. Her impact was felt off the bounce, aggressive putting her head down and getting to the basket at will. A very physical and strong guard, she's totally locked in when she's on the court and super driven to make her presence felt. She's a guard who isn't scared of the opponent, and that's something you can't really teach. She has that hunger to succeed and that makes her dangerous. She's assertive on defense as well, especially being disruptive around the perimeter. Underrated two-way player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='564266' first='Lily' last='King'] | Wildwood Catholic</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With every passing season, Lily gets better and better. She continues to add things to her game and improve on others. Now a senior, there's been no regression in her game as her stats continue to increase. As a junior, she racked up a career-best 333 points, tripling her totals from sophomore year. She also knocked down fifty-one triples, good for nearly two per game. At 5'10", she can alternate between the 2 and the 3 because of her sharpshooting and aggressive mentality attacking from the wing. Her length also aids in production on defense, getting her hands on a lot of passes and racking up a multitude of steals in the process. In fact, she's one of the most underrated defenders in the CAL. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1318324' first='Scarlett' last='Fletcher'] | Ocean City</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Her role as a rebounder is very impressive considering she's undersized in the post at 5'10". At just under 6.0 RPG last season, she definitely made an impact on the glass, at times, battling against much bigger opponents. That tenacity cannot be overlooked! To leave that type of a lasting impression while giving up so many inches is notable indeed! She's comfortable playing in and around the paint but also isn't afraid to step out and shoot it from the perimeter. There's emerging versatility in her game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='835899' first='Meghan' last='Johansen'] | Absegami</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Meghan commands the front court and plays really tough around the rim. Whether it's blocks, defensive rebounds or o-boards for put-backs, she certainly knows how to make things happen and stuff the stat sheet. She averaged a double-double last year as a sophomore and anchored the post for a team that struggled with size. At 6'0", she faced a lot of opponents much taller than her at the 5 but you'd never know it by just comparing stats, because she usually ended up with the most rebounds and blocked shots after every game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
