She has a smooth pull-up jumper from three and creates separation in the mid-range with step-backs. Her footwork allows her to get open without needing to dribble, and she's active defensively with strong hands that generate steals.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1623288"],"_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-69ce71e0edf0c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Stephanie put together an impressive freshman season, earning First Team All-Bergen County honors after scoring 524 points and knocking down 92 three-pointers. She has a quick release and does a great job finding space along the perimeter to spot up. When defenders close out too hard, she can attack the basket and finish effectively with either hand, showing strong all-around scoring ability.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1259137"],"_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-69ce71e0edf57"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jane will be playing for Jersey Gemz on the EYBL circuit and brings a versatile offensive game. She knocks down threes both off the catch and dribble, while also finishing strong around the rim using her size. Her smooth spin moves and ability to play inside and out make her tough to guard, and she adds value defensively as a physical presence who can block shots.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1308084"],"_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-69ce71e0edf9c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lana has established herself as one of the top shooters in New England as just a sophomore. Standing at 6 feet, she can shoot right over defenders with a high release that's difficult to contest. She averaged 14.5 points and 8 rebounds during her team's title run and will play for MCW Starz this AAU season. Her range extends well beyond the arc, and she shoots with consistent confidence.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1707675"],"_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-69ce71e0edfde"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Shelby is coming off a dominant middle school season with over 350 points, 100 rebounds, and strong all-around production as she prepares for high school. She gets to the rim quickly with decisive moves from the perimeter and fights hard on the offensive glass for extra possessions. She also shows the ability to knock down threes off the dribble, making her a well-rounded offensive threat early on.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
