<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>March is an ideal time to do some overview discussions around the high school year. There're 2028 guards that've made statements over the course of this season and now is the moment to highlight those that raised their stock.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Through Mach 9th, new users can unlock full access to all coverage, rankings and recruiting resources for FREE</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["802977"],"_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-69aac8ba42126"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='802977' first='Ava' last='Ayotte'] (2028) | PG/SG | MSC </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There was no sophomore slump for Ayotte this season. In fact, she rose to the occasion in ways that were extremely eye-opening. Not only did her level of production jump up, but she was also a key leader, even as an underclassman on a much-improved MSC squad coming into the year. Ava was a part of breaking a few records too. This list would be incomplete without Ayotte's name in the mix. Expect to see a jump in her positioning by the next rankings update. #45 is just too low after what she's been able to do for the Mounties. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1356376"],"_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-69aac8ba421bb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1356376' first='Precious' last='Godwin'] (2028) | PG/SG | SPS </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Godwin came into the season as a player to keep an eye on and she surely didn't disappoint. There aren't many players within the class that have the scoring depth she has at the moment With or without the ball it doesn't matter, Precious is lethal either way. She has range, gets to her ideal spots comfortably plus she finds ways to make plays regardless of the defensive pressure. Godwin is going to start to turn a lot of heads this spring if she hasn't already started to. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1041804"],"_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-69aac8ba42217"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1041804' first='Jules' last='Stevenson'] (2028) | PG | PA </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>What more can be said about Jules that hasn't already been stated? She's been raved about from some time here, so it seems as if she's starting to receive the admiration she's truly worthy of. Her coaches have been saying it for some time now and the sentiment must be reiterated; Stevenson is one of the best players in the entire class. It's time to get familiar with the name. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1005116"],"_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-69aac8ba4226e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1005116' first='Aaliyah' last='Maddox'] (2028) | CG | ND</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's hard to leave Maddox off a list like this. Prior to the start of the season, her positioning was deep in the back half of the rankings. The jump to becoming a top 25 player in the class just speaks to the type of year she's had. Was Aaliyah just underrated in the past? That could very well be true, but the assertiveness shown as well as multiple dominant performances showed a player that's improved tremendously. Maddox will be a feature name in '28. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1238253"],"_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-69aac8ba422c4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1238253' first='Jas' last='Rosario'] (2028) | CG | HS </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rosario was a fantastic guest addition to the squad this season. The '28 guard has idea floor general tendencies and she also possesses excellent ball control skills. Jas provides stability while consistently finding teammates, getting to the line regularly, limiting turnovers and can even ramp up the scoring if called upon. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
