In her last contest, Crews showed her promise as a perimeter shooter, knocking down three threes against Hickman County High School. Her rebounding ability, which has been seen throughout all four years of her high school hoops career, was also present in this game. She had nine rebounds in the contest</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>On defense, Crews is a great wing defender, as well as an interior defender. Her size lets her guard most post players well, and her foot speed allows her to guard wings. She is also solid at reading passing lanes. This year, in a game against Eagleville High School, she had four steals.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1122635"],"_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-692756af7281c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Zoie Chilton, as a wing, affects the outcome of basketball games positively in multiple phases.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Chilton showcased this in her team's latest game against Cascade High School. In the game, she had 11 points, six rebounds, and four assists. One of her ways of generating points on the offensive end is from her three-point shot. Her jumper has great tempo to it, and if she is left open, Chilton often capitalises on it. Also, her rebounding upside showed up in another game this year against Community High School, where she had eight boards.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">It will be a fun last year of hoops to see what all Chilton can accomplish in her senior season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["822269"],"_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-692756af7289b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">At Loretto High School, junior [player_tooltip player_id='822269' first='Sophie' last='Weathers'] has established herself as a great defender this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Already in the early years of hoops, Weathers has had two or more steals in multiple games. This includes a game against Columbia Central High School, where she had four steals. Weathers, at her size, is also able to contest shots well, getting multiple block shots in contests on occasion.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>On offense, she is a good inside scorer and a relentless scorer at that. As just a junior, she is definitely someone to keep an eye on. Weathers, at the rank of 58 in her class, has the skills to move up even more this season.</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":"[player_tooltip player_id='900273' first='Ella' last='Busby']","_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":"12123","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Summertown","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"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-6929f07d4c505"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Senior [player_tooltip player_id='900273' first='Ella' last='Busby'] is off to a hot start in the 2025-26 season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Busby, against Wayne County High School on Nov.26, had three made three-pointers. She has a high release point on her jumper and is quick in getting her shot off. These factors both go into making her a great shooter. At the guard position, Busby is also a solid playmaker.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Busby, this season, is also making an impact defensively. Against Page High School, she had two steals. She also has good rebounding at the guard position. In this same game, she also had six boards. Busby, in her senior season, will be a crucial part of trying to get Summertown to have a successful season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
