At 5'10", she still has guard skills and is a good driver who does well attacking on the dribble with her non-dominant left hand.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Andrews, when attacking the paint, does a good job of locating her teammates who are either cutting into the interior or are already posted up on the low blocks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1826571"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6abd666f65e2a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1826571' first='Eva' last='Eaton'] in her sophomore season proved to be a player who can catch fire beyond the arc.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Eaton has a high-level jumper with great mechanics. She had multiple games with two or more made 3-pointers. This includes a game against McEwen High School where she made four.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Eaton is mainly a catch-and-shoot threat. She is especially good at knocking down perimeter shots from the left wing to the left corner. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Eaton is also a good defender, especially when her team chooses to run a press defense. She knows how to play in the scheme that gives the opposing team a high chance of making a mistake.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1222538"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6abd666f65e96"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1222538' first='La'Nayja' last='Lyons'] has an extremely high ceiling as a player with how versatile her game is.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lyons, first off, is a dynamic defender. She is able to defend both in the paint and on the perimeter at a high level. Listed as a SF, she is still able to affect most post shots. In multiple games in her sophomore season, she had two or more blocks, including a game against Northeast High School where she had three blocks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lyons is also a good rebounder and playmaker. A game last year that highlights her vast skill set was the game in which she recorded three blocks against Northeast.

She is quick on the dribble and catch change directions as good as anyone. That allows her to be a good fast-break scorer and overall paint scorer. Clark also does a good job at recognizing help defense on her drives to the bucket. If a defender helps, she often can deliver a pass to her open teammate.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Clark also has a high-arcing jumper that she can hit routinely in games.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["821834"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6abd666f65f76"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='821834' first='Davia' last='Collins'] could be one of the more impactful PFs/Cs in her region this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Collins is extremely athletic, going into he having a great second jump. That allows her to be both a big blocking threat and rebounding threat. In a game against Brentwood Academy last season, this ability was showcased. Collins blocked a shot that then ricocheted to another Brentwood Academy player in the paint. She was able to gather her feet quickly and jump up and contest their shot.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Collins on offense can knock down perimeter shots and is a good scorer in transition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
