<p>My evaluations of the point guards at the TYBC Combine were based on what I observed during testing and live scrimmages. Testing provided a look at their speed, agility, and athleticism, while scrimmages showed how they applied those tools against other talented players. I paid close attention to ball handling, decision-making, scoring, pace, defensive effort, and the ability to create opportunities for teammates. Beyond the numbers, I looked at poise, competitiveness, communication, and how each point guard responded under pressure. These evaluations reflect their performances at the combine and the individual qualities that stood out throughout the day. Here are some of the players that stood out to me Part 1. <br></p>

<p class="text-gray-700">This was my first opportunity to watch [player_tooltip player_id='1869966' first='Ada' last='Hazzard'] in live game action after regularly catching her highlights on my phone, and the Illinois guard quickly showed that those highlights are the real deal. A three-level scorer with a smooth handle, Hazzard consistently created opportunities to get past defenders and make plays during scrimmages. Her poise and willingness to be a go-to player stood out, whether she was seeking out the ball on offense or stepping up defensively. Hazzard is a player to keep a close eye on in Illinois' class of 2031.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">In my opinion, Chitwood is one of the fastest guards in the state from end to end, and she showcased that speed throughout combine testing and scrimmages. She recorded some of the fastest times among all attendees, then carried that same energy into live action. Competing against some of Wisconsin's top talent, Chitwood played with high intensity and a pace that stood out on the floor.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">I was excited to watch Huppert again after her strong showing at the UpNext Showcase, and she didn't disappoint at the TYBC Combine. A speedy guard with good decision-making skills, Huppert showed a knack for setting up defenders before making her move to the basket, often turning those opportunities into points. She balances her speed with patience, knowing when to attack and when to keep the ball moving to keep the defense on its heels.<br><br></p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Gouge regularly competes against top talent with [program_tooltip program_id='712652' first='Mac' last='Irvin Lady Fire'], so Sunday's competition at the TYBC Combine was familiar territory. She brought a toughness to her game that stood out throughout the scrimmages and recorded one of the highest vertical jumps among all attendees. A multisport athlete, Gouge showcased the athleticism and competitive edge she brings to the floor.</p>
