Such a pure athlete who plays with grit. When it's crunch time, she thrives on stepping up and making the big buckets! I'm a big fan of her! <em>(Below on defense)</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1671668,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2026/01/94D5CA4B-F8AA-44C8-9712-8B03F279AB76_1_201_a.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-1671668" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["537669"],"_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-69701b0019a6c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">We talk so often about Milee's athleticism, fundamentals, and scoring. But just as equally, I love her sportsmanship and leadership. Smith keeps her composure, involves her teammates, and at the end of the day, will do anything for a win. Her pro like moves to the basket make me smile! The Dayton signee is the real deal!   </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1671664,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2026/01/738F0584-7DC5-4C40-9941-989A95FC7F5A_1_105_c.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-1671664" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- /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":1671663,"_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Jillian Mathey","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2028","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'9u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"12122","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Unioto","_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-69701b0019b82"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jillian, your defense is very much noticeable! You are a wall inside the paint, and do a fantastic job protecting anything close to the basket! Solid baseline move to the rim to end the half for two!  I love what you bring to this team! You play hard- your defense, rebounding, boxing out, holding opponents from scoring, and making shot are big! <em>(Below with hands up)</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1671661,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2026/01/C158F56C-8A80-4C9C-8F65-4FC4EA209FDF_1_105_c.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-1671661" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1261033"],"_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-69701b0019c01"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bashore finds ways to score the ball. I've said before that her length and agility is an asset to her game on both ends of the court. Strong IQ, able to play multiple positions, automatic from the charity stripe, zero turnovers while playing the entire game, and she makes wise choices on where and when to shoot. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1671673,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2026/01/45A57EAF-EAD8-4B16-B412-9893244C1998_1_105_c.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-1671673" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["833679"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":1671674,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-69701b0019c6b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Grubbs' stance on the block and how guards can feed her inside is such an asset!  Remember the table top game from the 80's call Hungry Hungry Hippos, where the object of the game is to capture as many plastic marbles as possible?   That's what Kelsey is like with rebounding!  <em>(Featured Photo, with ball)</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1671671,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2026/01/6E18C89C-868B-4527-B918-583F20D8FC89_1_105_c.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-1671671" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["743679"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":1671675,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-69701b0019cc5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She's felt the defensive pressure all game, but continues to keep her composure by setting up the offense, knows when to retreat with the ball and when to penetrate to the basket.  Strong handles.  You need to know where Trowbridge is because she'll come from behind and block. Love how she finds paths to the basket to score! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":1671670,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2026/01/29DF2BFA-5C66-4598-9F92-568C1ACC3AF2_1_201_a.jpeg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-1671670" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
