<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The 5'11" forward wreaked havoc in the MAPL. A walking double-double, she averaged 15.3 PPG & 11.8 RPG this season and proved to be a threat anywhere in the paint. Her offensive game was equipped with disciplined footwork, a pretty step-through move and strong face-up game. Defensively, she anchored Hun and protected the rim furiously.</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Ranking: #32</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>One of the scrappiest guards in this class, Mary imposed her two-game on some of the best teams in the country this season. She was an absolute bullet in transition and converted defense to offense at an impressive rate. Her perimeter defense locked down the opposing team's best player, forcing numerous turnovers and averaging over 3.0 SPG.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1731572' first='Savannah' last='Jackson'] | Ranney</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Ranking: #45</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Savannah was a bright spot for Ranney in what was a total rebuilding year. Her confidence grew as the season went on, and by season's end, she had accumulated seven 20-point games and a career high 37 points [vs Wildwood Catholic]. She led the Panthers in points, rebounds and blocks, putting her two-way game on full display in the ever-competitive Shore Conference. </p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Ranking: #47</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A crafty point guard, Ava showed off a high IQ and impressive skillset this season. She used her quickness to beat defenders downhill, was crafty around the rim and used quick hands and anticipation to pick off steals. With impressive vision, she found teammates through small gaps in coverage and got everybody in on the action. Total team player who made a big impact in the MAPL.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1831901' first='Amanda' last='Ciser'] | Bridgewater-Raritan</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Ranking: #61</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A hot hand from 3 saw Amanda lead the Panthers in scoring at 13.2 PPG, including 2.3 threes per contest. This breakout sophomore season saw four 20-point games, including a career-high 25 vs Carteret, and increased production in statistical categories across the board. Her all-out effort got this team through some tight games en-route to 14 wins and an appearance in the playoffs.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1273249' first='Siena' last='Jaworski'] | Egg Harbor Township</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Ranking: #94</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Siena led a well-balanced EHT squad in scoring at 11.5 PPG. Her growth from freshman to sophomore year was exponential, going from limited minutes and production to a team leader in so many ways. Two of the biggest areas of improvement I noticed were in 3-point shooting and on defense. She upped her confidence and willingness to let it fly from 3, which paid dividends. Defensively, she did a great job locking down the perimeter and not allowing anything easy. She snagged steals, took charges and played with a blue-collar approach.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1355087' first='Juniper' last='King'] | Wildwood Catholic</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Ranking: #139</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Standing six feet tall, Juniper used her size at the guard/wing positions to make a big impact for the Crusaders. She did a nice job both scoring and defending inside & out, filling in wherever needed. She showed flashes of consistency from 3-point land and a boost in confidence when conference play rolled around in January.</p>
