Stierer has a knack for finding space behind the defense, displaying good cutting instincts. Katie finishes high on finishes at the rim and her balance allows her to finish despite the contact received. Katie isn't just a contributor on offense though; Katie displays genuine hustle as a defender. She's not afraid to challenge players on the drive to make a deflection or block. The King Philip wing is a prospect to watch this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1050217"],"_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-692a4271b7ce8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1050217' first='Sara' last='Santimaw'] (2027) | 6'2 Wing | Taft </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Taft's junior wing can be a real difference maker this season. The shooting, along with high IQ she possesses makes her a striking prospect. She's been getting a lot more recognition over the last few months and that's for good reason. It's clear she has translatable skills at the next level. Sara has been a trending name lately, taking a slew of visits to some great schools. The offers are still flowing in up to this point. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["352995"],"_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-692a4271b7de0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='352995' first='Alexa' last='Huckaby'] (2027) | 6'1 Wing | Hamden Hall </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Alexa has a high motor, can defend multiple positions and is a general stat sheet filler. Not the biggest of scorers, but her impact goes far beyond and it has been improving over time.

The do-it-all forward sets solid screens, hits open shots, can function in the paint plus defends multiple positions at a high level. She makes the most out of possessions with her hardworking DNA and can serve as a glue-like character for her squad. Dupeyron's offensive ability has been growing rapidly, particularly her off the dribble attacks from the perimeter. Her explosion getting to the rim has been looking exceptional and she demonstrates a soft touch consistently.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["968012"],"_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-692a4271b7efc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='968012' first='Maeve' last='Early'] (2027) | 5'10 Wing | Marianapolis </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>No stranger to mentioning here. Early is a rising start that's the mere definition of versatile. Meave has the positional size advantage, inside-out adaptability and upper-class agility that allows her to be impactor on both sides of the ball. Maeve's development in creating off the dribble plus her knack for finding holes in the defense just adds to her lure. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
