Midseason Check-In: Byron’s Top Breakout Freshmen

<!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">When it comes to scouting and or ranking the freshman class, pure skill and consistency are what I truly focus on. Any freshman can have a breakout moment or a high scoring game, but consistency at this early stage is what will hold the most weight. Below are a couple of freshmen who didn't come into the season with a ton of hype, but have been consistent during the first half of the season. </h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1217102"],"_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-694eb13588e36"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>Mia has been one of the best freshmen in this state so far this year, and she has found herself in the Top 10 when the updated rankings are released. She understands the pace of the game, and knows when to score and or when to make plays for others. The potential she has is skyrocketing. It's been fun to see her make a name for herself so far this season.</em> <em>The offers will roll in soon. </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1280024"],"_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-694eb13588ec1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>When it comes to scoring the ball, Adams has been a huge bright spot for Romeoville. She doesn't need much to find an angle and attack. She is beyond confident, and having that at this early stage in her career will set the tone. She can score from all three levels, and doesn't get shy if there's defense and or heavy helpside pressure. Big second half of the year coming up for Adams. </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1134532"],"_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-694eb13588f12"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>Fourdyce has had a strong impact on the Woodstock program so far this year, and the numbers she's been able to put up align with that impact.
