A strong and physical player, she impacts every facet of the game—scoring, rebounding, passing, and defending. Offensively, she's a smooth three-level scorer, equally dangerous pulling up, attacking the rim, or stepping out to shoot from deep. On defense, her toughness and motor set the tone for Deer Park. With another year ahead of her, Bryant has already proven she's the league's top all-around threat.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Jaelyn McCormack-Marks","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'7u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"12121","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Clarkston","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68f2736de8b4a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McCormack-Marks earned League MVP honors by combining skill with hustle. A three-level scorer and high-caliber shooter, she handled the ball with poise and kept defenders guessing. What made her stand out was her relentless energy—diving on the floor for loose balls, then sprinting down to bury a three on the other end. That mix of toughness and finesse made her one of the most exciting players in the league and a leader for Clarkston in her senior season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["580528"],"_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-68f274ac8a9b4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Boesel's value went far beyond the box score. A First Team All-League selection, she made a massive impact on the defensive end, where her versatility allowed her to guard multiple positions and disrupt opponents' flow. On offense, she stretched the floor with her shooting, moved the ball well, and let the game come to her (a rare trait). A strong ball handler with a steady presence, Boesel was the kind of player who made everyone around her better.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["663650"],"_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-68f274ac8aa03"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Another First Team All-League honoree, Bryant brought elite shooting to Deer Park's backcourt. With a high, smooth release, she consistently knocked down jumpers while also showing the mobility to play high in the press and use her length to disrupt passing lanes. She provided a combination of size, effort, and shooting touch that made her one of the most reliable players in the league. Her toughness and versatility were central to Deer Park's success.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["880080"],"_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-68f274ac8aa49"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kuhle played with speed and toughness that defined her game. A First Team All-League guard, she attacked relentlessly in transition, knocked down shots from deep, and moved well without the ball to keep defenses working. Known for her scrappy style, she wasn't afraid to sacrifice her body for loose balls or defensive stops. With her quickness, shooting, and court awareness, Kuhle consistently provided Pullman with energy and scoring punch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
