Most Outstanding Players from State Championship Day 3

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>NCHSAA is hosting their state championships this week, and I am in Winston-Salem to catch all eight of the women's championship games.  On day 3, we had two matchups: 3A classification saw Goldsboro defeat East Surry and 4A classification saw Maiden defeat Fairmont.  Every game sees a Most Outstanding player selected from each team.  Here are the Most Outstanding Players from day 3.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

steal, or rebound working to keep the possession for her team.  She was constantly flashing in and out of the paint looking for the opening, and she battled against anyone to grab the rebound even using offensive boards for her own points.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

off of these turnovers.  She started off the second half grabbing the steal and taking it for two on a solo fast break.  She was doing an excellent job passing and relocating making the cut to the basket and scoring her points.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

to get some points.  She had some tough takes to the basket battling contact for her points, and she followed shots grabbing rebounds for her team.  There's certainly a reason her opponents focused a lot of their defense on her as part of their game plan.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

versatility inside using power dribbles to score some points at the rim.  She used her jab step to create some space pulling up quickly for the jumper.  She played tough on ball defense deflecting the ball away from her opponents slowing down their progress up the court including the opposing team's best player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
