2027 Player Rankings Update: Rounding Out The Top 75

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The back end of the Top 75 is where depth meets upside. These prospects below are proving they belong with continued production and flashes that hint at even more on the way in the soon to be future.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Thanks for tuning in and enjoy!</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["923941"],"_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-69c9aa8dc7718"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">With the time that [player_tooltip player_id='923941' first='Emma' last='Worley'] saw on the floor this Winter, she made the most of her moments. She was one that had consistent minutes all season long and she demonstrated flashes of production on both ends. She was a player of opportunity, moving into open space and making shots when those chances showed themselves. She was never afraid to step up in the big moments, even if it wasn't necessarily her job and that speaks to her character on the hardwood. Should be a fun AAU season for Worley. She should leave it all out on the floor cause why not. If she can do that, she should like where it takes her on her basketball journey at the end of the day. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["765347"],"_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-69c9aa8dc7782"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='765347' first='Macie' last='Vetter'] is in for a big AAU season ahead with her [program_tooltip program_id='716010' first='Western' last='Iowa Express'] 17U program as their starting PG/SG. Vetter is a nice prospect. She doesn't do anything crazy but she still see's success and that is because of her fundamentals. When she handles, she protects the ball with her off-hand really well. When she shoots, it's always in rhythm or in motion, where-ever that may be at. When she rebounds, she finds her matchup first, boxes them out, and then goes for the board. All while holding her own on defense. If she does ever get beat, she is very good at recovering into open space with quick feet and active hands. I'm hoping some colleges step in to see Vetter this Spring. She plays good ball. The type of ball that will translate to the next level with hard-work and dedication. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["896426"],"_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-69c9aa8dc77d1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Tipton Tigers put together one of their best season in school history this past Winter as they almost went undefeated throughout their entire year. The reason for this dominance could be said to be a few things but most importantly they just had better players than their competition on most evenings. Someone that has been in their system for a while now, who rounds out this Top 75 for us at #69 is one of their PGs - [player_tooltip player_id='896426' first='Paityn' last='Daedlow']. Daedlow is a crafty, pass first type. She might not show up on the stat sheet as the team's leading scoring threat each evening but she knows how to set everyone else around her up for success at such a high rate that it doesn't matter. She does a great job of controlling pace of play within the game and she knows how to make something happen out of thin air if her team's play happens to break down. Tipton is going to return most from this Winter again next season. If they take care of business, they should be right back in the almost same spot once again. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["832210"],"_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-69c9aa8dc7817"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">You can't deny production. You have to take into account the competition level but production still matters either way. Someone that did a great job of producing once again for her team each evening was SG - [player_tooltip player_id='832210' first='Taryn' last='Petersen']. Petersen would be described as a stat-stuff for her team. She knows how to get buckets at all offensive levels, she can create for others off the dribble, she rebounds at a steady rate for her size/position, it doesn't take much for her to catch on fire shooting the rock, and she is a scrappy defender. All of this leads to a ton of positive stats each evening for the Junior. We have seen that for years now leading up to this past season so it's nice to see that she is still putting in the work and seeing the positive results. I wouldn't expect anything to change moving into Petersen's Senior year. She is going to be looked upon as their big dawg on the front lines so I can't wait to see how she follows things up. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
