She is an underrecruited and underappreciated prospect. She is going to be an absolute steal for whoever is able to get her. She has high level college basketball athleticism, size, and strength. She has been a beast with getting into the gym in the offseason and she is starting to experience a lot of success due to that hard work.

She has been scoring the rock on a different level than previous years. She has multiple games of 30 or more points and is clearly the number one option for her squad. She recently committed to play at Dickinson State and they are getting one quality player. She is well on her way to an All-State selection in 2025-2026.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1217411"],"_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-6945c56faa9fb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Poitra has helped Turtle Mountain to a 6-1 start to the season and a current number 4 ranking in Class A basketball. She is playing some of the best basketball of her career. She is currently averaging 13.1 points per game, 7.7 rebounds, and 2.6 steals. She is shooting nearly 50% from the field and 42% from the three. She has gotten to the free throw line an average of 5 times per game and is shooting it at 81%. She is being extremely efficient offensively. She is also a very good defender. She is a big reason for the early season success for the Turtle Mountain Braves.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["493728"],"_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-6945c56faaa64"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='493728' first='Emma' last='Jones'] makes a leap in this round of rankings due to her commitment to play college hoops at Minot State University. I trust Coach Clark's talent analysis. Class B girls can sometimes be missed due to fluctuations of talent throughout the State, but Jones has always stood out as a special player. She has the Panthers off to an outstanding start at 8-1. Glenburn should be scratching the surface on the next Class B state poll. She is a true utility player, able to play any position and be effective. She should be strongly considered for an All-State selection this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["625626"],"_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-6945c56faaad0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McAllister has helped [program_tooltip program_id='712656' first='Mandan' last=''] off to an undefeated start to this season. She is doing a great job scoring the ball and is her team's leading scorer through five games at 19 points per game. She is also averaging 3.6 rebounds and 4 steals per game. She is shooting the ball efficiently at 39.5% from the field and 31% from three. The athletic 5'11 guard is also a really good defender. She can keep opponents in front of her and is great at getting deflections on passes. She is well on her way to a WDA All-Conference season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1056241"],"_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-6945c56faab30"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Nero is in her fifth season of playing varsity basketball. She has done a really good job of coming back each season a little bit better than the previous one. This season is no different. She is already over 1000 career points and will be in the record books as one of the better scorers in school history. I am also assuming she will be one of the top rebounders in school history as well. She is an athletic 5'10 who isn't afraid to get to the hoop. As previously stated, she is a good rebounder and is capable of a double-double any given night. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1052989"],"_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-6945c56faab8b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mickellyn is a returning All-Region and All-State selection for the Killdeer Cowboys. She is a savvy scorer and can do it from anywhere on the floor. She is more than capable of stretching the floor with her excellent three-point shooting ability. She is also able to get downhill and get to the hoop. She has good size at 6' and does a good job of leveraging her strength against opponents. Killdeer needs Walker to step up every night to be competitive, and she seems to always heed the call to perform.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["641199"],"_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-6945c56faac58"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hakim has had a senior season comeback. She is performing exceptionally well and solidifying her role on a talented Shanley team. She is currently averaging about 8 points per game and 8 rebounds per game. She is shooting the ball at a better percentage than last season. She is a strong post down low and does a good job of competing for position defensively. The Hakim name at Shanley has been a staple for good players throughout the years, with Peace being the latest of the group.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1098603"],"_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-6945c56faacc8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ottmar is an All-Region returner for the Jaguars.&nbsp; She is a smooth lefty with a quick release.&nbsp; I am impressed with her ability to get shots off from behind the arc.&nbsp; Her specialty is the corner three where she gets her feet set for drive and kick opportunities.&nbsp; She is also excellent at jumping passing lanes for easy transition buckets. &nbsp;She is Grant County's most consistent offensive threat.&nbsp; At the time of this article, she had scored in double figures in every game I could find box scores for.&nbsp; She is a talented guard who could certainly play college basketball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1248249"],"_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-6945c56faad9b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Audra has done a really good job of progressing at her own pace throughout her high school career and has been rewarded with a starting job, lots of minutes, and efficient play. She is currently averaging 7.2 points per game, 4.8 rebounds, and shooting 43% from the field and 38% from three. Schroeder is the type of player everyone roots for due to her outstanding attitude and how good of a teammate she is. Audra is having a great senior season and should be proud of her journey as a high school player. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
