<p>As the first Live Period of the season nears, the Jersey Aces will be heading to Norman, Oklahoma for the 1st Stop on the Puma Pro16 circuit. Let's take a closer look at the 15U team that is a complete roster with size in the middle, wings who can shoot it and ball handlers that control the game.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1260413' first='Charlie' last='Berger'] </h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>As a 5'6" guard, Charlie will give you a little bit of everything. She is a confident shooter, an aggressive defender, an efficient distributor and a willing rebounder. As a freshman at Millburn, she led the Millers in assists, was 2nd in 3-pointers and rebounds, was 3rd in steals and tied for 3rd in scoring for a team that went 19-10 and advance to the North 2 Group 3 semifinals.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1606130' first='Eva' last='Bolstad']</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>With a void in the middle after the graduation of 2,000 point scorer Charlotte Tuhy, Eva stepped in as a freshman and led the team in rebounds. She was also 2nd in blocks and 3rd in scoring helping Madison to the North 2 Group 2 finals. She will give the Aces an athlete at the 4 position who can mix it up and finish around the rim.</p>

<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1259255' first='Marley' last='Edwards']</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Marley is an athletic guard who can attack in transition, step out and shoot the 3 and guard the perimeter with a presence. She finished 3rd on the team in 3-pointers for Pingry helping them advance to the North Non-Public A finals.</p>

<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Riley Guevara</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>As her freshman season at West Essex went on, her role grew and that is because this feisty guard is tough to keep off the court. She will bring the same energy and motor to the Aces. She is fearless attacking the basket, willing to guard with physicality and knows how to setup her teammates. As a freshman she led the team in assist and was 4th in points, 3-pointers, rebounds and steals.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1781237' first='Kaja' last='Lenczyk']</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Kaja will give the Aces a long wing who can attack the basket and score. She also has shown the ability to shoot the 3 with confidence. She will work inside on the glass and is opportunistic on D. As a freshman at Wayne Hills, she led the team in points, rebounds, blocks and steals, was tied for 2nd in 3-pointers and was 3rd in assists.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1324319' first='McKenzi' last='Lewis']</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>McKenzi is one of several long wings for the aces. She can play inside and out and will give the team added versatility. Her athleticism is obvious and she is a 3-sport athlete. As a freshman at Rutherford she led the team in blocks, was 2nd in 3-pointers, rebounds, assists and steals and 3rd in points.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1128674' first='Nola' last='Lewis']</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>When Nola gets it going she is a bucket. She has a quick release from the arc and can shoot it with range. On an Aces team with several guards who can get in the lane off the dribble, she should be able to spot up and get shots all season. She also hits the glass hard and finishes around the rim. As a freshman, she took Millburn to the North 2 Group 3 semifinals and led the team in points, 3-pointers, rebounds, blocks and steals and was 3rd in assists.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Teagan Rowley</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Teagan will be the anchor in the middle for the Aces after her freshman season at St. Joseph-by-the-Sea. At 6'3" she utilizes her length to intimidate shots inside. She shows good hands on the glass and solid footwork in the post for a player of her size. She is not afraid to bang inside and get on the floor after loose balls. </p>

<!-- wp:heading -->
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1301651' first='Carly' last='Sibi']</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Carly has proven already that she will be the floor general of this team. Not only does she want the ball in her hands, she's very comfortable when she has it. She directs the offense and knows when to distribute and when to get her points and she can score from the arc or at the rim. As a freshman at Boonton, she led the team in points, 3-pointers, assists and blocks and was 2nd in steals and rebounds.</p>
