She is an excellent shooter with good range with solid handles and has the ability to see the floor with stellar passing. She is an elite player and will take over the leadership role as a primary offensive threat this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1305505"],"_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-691288757da17"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Corrin is a junior who like Leah will be heavily counted on as they have lofty goals again this season. She also is a perimeter threat with excellent physical strength and her leadership role is at a high level. Very vocal and makes the engine run. According to her coach, she is on a mission. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["538057"],"_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-691288757daa2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mallory is another key senior expected to shine with a great season. Like the others, she can knock down the perimeter shot and defend well on-ball. Her vocal leadership is also up there as she did not play basketball as a junior after two seasons with the Generals. She is back and they are excited to have her!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Kennedie and [player_tooltip player_id='1279788' first='[player_tooltip player_id='1241434' first='Addison' last='']' last='Hill'], 2026- </strong>you will have to see double this season when they are on the court because both have some similar skills which will be huge for AW. Both of them play the game fast, can push tempo and lead the break in transition. They are able to use their quick hands and court sense to get deflections. A big part of the success for the Generals this year will be on [player_tooltip player_id='1241434' first='Addison' last=''] and Kennedie. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>OTHERS TO WATCH</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Kelsey Borcherdt, 2027</strong>- Kelsey is a forward who is an excellent passer and can defend, which leads to scoring chances for her team. Her basketball IQ is also very high with a great eye for the game. Expect her to have an impact on this team in a big way. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Payton Hill, 2029 Guard- </strong>Super talented athlete who looks to make a name for herself and follow in the footsteps of her older sisters on this team. She is very athletic while also being able to make the big pass and hits the boards well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1227111' first='Gianna' last='Cusumano'], 2029 Guard= </strong>I have been fortunate enough to have seen her a couple of times this summer and I think her future could be very bright with this team. At 5'3 she is a productive rebounder and can defend. Her leadership for a freshman is outstanding.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
