<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Every season, some new players make a name for themselves over the high school campaign. Last season, numerous players stepped into more prominent roles and thrived as the focal points of their programs. Today, we will look at some players who could take a step forward if they earn the responsibility to do more on both ends of the court.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["888387"],"_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-6a8fbadeaa5cf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The talented wing from Southeast Wisconsin is a kid who played well in her freshman season. However, a knee injury just before her sophomore season has kept her off the floor since, but she should be ready to play this volleyball season. That said, she is one of the most talented kids in the state and has the tools to take this program, which surprised people, including myself, after reaching sectionals last winter. She is a player who can swing high-profile postseason games, and she will be one of the most productive wings in the state once she gets rolling.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1231054"],"_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-6a8fbadeaa639"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Lena wing will do a little of everything for the Wildcats in her sophomore season. Thomson impressed after she was asked to do more after her sister's season ended early due to a knee injury. She is capable of recording a double-double in any game she plays and has the skill set to push the ball up the floor in transition. She does a little of everything, which should help her keep her Lena team competitive in conference and the postseason.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1225521"],"_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-6a8fbadeaa689"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The sophomore is stepping into a significantly different environment after transferring from Wisconsin Rapids Lincoln to SPASH. Konkol had an impressive first season, but the team success wasn't there for Rapids, even though they were better than the year before. However, a player like Konkol could complement two power-four recruits, and she could be a player who takes this team over the top and gets them to the Resch Center this March by allowing Awe and Seubert to play off-ball and utilize another ball handler.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["889268"],"_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-6a8fbadeaa6d5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I like what Pluemer brings to the floor and trust the poise she plays with on both ends of the floor to translate into winning basketball. She's a physical player who can move her feet well enough to stay in front of guards off the dribble and rebound on the defensive end. The Brookfield native is also an efficent scorer who can score in the paint and space the floor to knock down perimeter jumpers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
