Freshmen Friday: Class of 2029

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2029 Class will be the first class I get to follow from Freshman year to Senior year as a Prep Girls Hoops scout. Periodically, I will spotlight them with updates on how they are doing or introduce new players that I discover.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>After I did my Fall Leagues tour, I noticed I didn't see many freshmen players in the leagues. However, as basketball season tipped off, I find myself finding more talented freshmen.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1305910"],"_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-6933bb814426b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><br>Versatile Guard/Forward. Courtney was a freshman I did see during the Fall League season. Arlington travelled to Harding Academy for a game. So that was a perfect opportunity to not only see a couple of juniors but also do a check in on the freshman. From what I saw, she seems to be adjusting pretty well to the high school game. My unofficial stats on her were 8 points, 10 rebounds and 5 steals against Harding. She is a very active player that hustles after loose balls. She rebounds out of area. Her length is used in the front of the press. She does a good job of using her length to deflect passes into the post and, along with her anticipation skills, to get steals. Her versatility allows her to defend in the paint and on the perimeter. She can score with her back to the basket with a turn around pull up. She can score off the dribble.&nbsp; Over the last 4 games, Courtney is averaging 8.3 points and 5 rebounds.</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":"Rylei Conrod","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2029","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"12125","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Arlington","_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-6933bb8144337"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><br>Athletic Shooting Guard. She had some big free throws and a big bucket during the fourth quarter of Arlington's OT game with Harding Academy. She primarily played off the ball until a teammate fouled out. Then she had to run the point position. Her strength is the scorer role. She is quick to the basket with the ball and has a pull up shot. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br>Here are Freshman that I saw in the MLK Tournament:&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1252930"],"_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-6933bb81443a5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><br>Long Point Guard with long wingspan.
