Girls from Tennessee and bordering states took the floor, looking to compete against strong competition. Held just a little outside Nashville, teams came to this event looking to see where they stacked up against clubs from various circuits. Nike, Adidas, Puma, New Balance, and independent clubs were all in the building looking to showcase their talent. This was a great one-day event for those squads to get in before hitting the road for their circuit events.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the things I loved about this event was that it attracted some clubs with some pretty prominent names. Girls who had been dominant during school ball were alive and well, going toe-to-toe against some kids they may or may not have played earlier in the year. The competition was exciting, not only wetting the palates of those yearning for more basketball, but also letting everyone know that even more exciting basketball is about to take center stage in the high school ranks. The name on the chest may have been different, but the girls who competed in this event let everyone know who they were, and they mean business.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are some kids who did their thing at The Shootout in Nashville, TN.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1155120"],"_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-69d3ec755c2c4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This girl is coming on strong, and she's on the cusp of something great. A fearless ballplayer who creates havoc on the defensive end. Offensively, she can score from all levels, get to the cup and finish, but it's her D that will be her calling card and something that will make her name a highly sought-after one. She competes. Period. One who will not only defend but also contribute on the boards. Look for her to see the floor often as she competes against some top competition.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1817480"],"_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-69d3ec755c36f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She's going to be a problem for years to come. Possesses speed and can change gears at a moment's notice. She was active on both ends of the floor as her team worked this past weekend. She can knock down shots from multiple spots and play solid on the defensive end. What was most impressive was her ability to play with poise and slow the game down. She's a heady ball player whose game is going to do nothing but grow.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["822224"],"_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-69d3ec755c3e3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Talented kid who is going to increase her stock even more. She anchors the middle for a talented club and will only get better as the year progresses. She has a bag of back-to-the-basket moves, where she displays a will that won't allow her to be denied the opportunity to put the ball in the hoop. She's a shot blocker and big-time on the boards. Talented, she is one whose name will be tossed around by many schools this upcoming season. Keep an eye on this ballplayer as she is and will be a nice foundational piece for a program at the next level.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["909029"],"_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-69d3ec755c454"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">An exciting young prospect that as all the makings of being the next great guard from the Cookeville program. This kid is a fearless leader and commands the offense. She can play on the ball or off, but the one thing you can't do is give her space. She is one who will exploit a defense quickly. The skies are the limit for this prospect. She's been battle-tested and played on the big stage. With this travel ball season stuff, this is only going to make her better and help her jump on the radar of collegiate coaches. Solid kid who can be a game changer.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["821733"],"_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-69d3ec755c4c9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">3 and D. The glue girl who is coming off a state championship title. This kid is the heart and soul of her travel ball team, and her teammates feed off her energy. She hit multiple 3s in her games, but it was her defense (as always) that was on display for all to witness. She got a ton of deflections, contributed on the boards, and her play frees up everyone around her. She's one whose stock is on the uptick. Keep tabs on her, as college coaches will be calling sooner rather than later. A top prospect who is making a name for herself throughout the state and beyond.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
