Summer Creek Eyes Three-Peat

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Losing<strong> Kennedy Simpson</strong> will take a blow, as she was one of the main forces behind their back-to-back <strong>6A Division 1 State Championships, </strong>but they have a <strong>Big Three </strong>ready to step up to the plate, as well as some solid role players, and I have them as one of my preseason teams to beat</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["912566"],"_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-6ab7b052df254"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Young grabbed my attention pre-freshman season while she was playing for the<strong> [program_tooltip program_id='715312' first='Houston' last='Lady Nets'], </strong>and her poise under pressure made her one of the fewe players I have gotten up for to find out what her name was <strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/tyasia-young/">see evaluations here</a>;</em></strong> however, last season, she simply exploded and took her game to another level</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["839900"],"_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-6ab7b052df292"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Martin is a tough matchup because she can drop it from outside as well as score off the dribble<strong><em><a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/player/addison-martin/"> see evaluations here</a></em></strong> as she too took her game to another level.
