She catches the ball well in the post and can finish well. I also was impressed with her ability to rebound the ball in traffic. She can also get out of her area to corral boards. She is also very mobile and was running the court very well throughout the game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Madalynn Janes ([program_tooltip program_id='712597' first='Knights' last='Basketball Academy']): A 5'9" forward who has good size and athleticism and who can also handle the ball. She scored on some strong takes to the basket and she displayed a nice hesi move off the dribble where she kept defenders off balance. She also has very good footwork when enables her to operate well in traffic around the basket.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kennedi Dorsey (Phenom/St. Louis): A 5'10" forward who plays a very active and productive game in the post. She is strong and can establish her position very well. She is also a good roller in the pick-and-roll. She catches the ball with strength in traffic and she can finish with either hand around the basket. She also had some impressive rim runs which led to transition baskets.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stella Seaman ([program_tooltip program_id='712597' first='Knights' last='Basketball Academy']): A 5'9" forward who has good athleticism and solid fundamentals to go with it. She catches the ball and keeps it high to finish on an offensive rebound. She can catch it from the high post and wheel and deal off the dribble to get a bucket. Her defense in the low post was also impressive as she used her footwork and positioning inside to steal entry passes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Sarah Williams ([program_tooltip program_id='712597' first='Knights' last='Basketball Academy']): A solid forward who is a high energy player with a very solid all-around game. She is a strong rebounder who gives a strong second and third effort on the boards. She also scored on a nice reverse layup and also a turnaround jumper in the lane. She is also a good secondary ball handler who can make quick decisions when facing full court pressure defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hannah Hallgren ([program_tooltip program_id='712597' first='Knights' last='Basketball Academy']- Manuel): A 5'9" forward who is a very tough player who enjoyed the physical play around the basket. She was playing against older players, but she didn't back down from anybody. She is an excellent screener, which was very impressive. She also did a good job of running the court to get early low post position in the lane.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
