Senior Standouts from Iron Sharpen Iron

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Checking in on outstanding seniors from last Saturday's scrimmages at Del City. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1222734"],"_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-6af2429f31a1c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Rogers is a new face for 2A contenders Riverside. She's moved back to Oklahoma after a couple successful years in North Carolina. On Saturday morning she put on a show with a fantastic performance against a talented 6A squad. Defensively she's a menace with her quickness and tenacity. Those traits made her the tip of the spear for Riverside's disruptive press. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Offensively, she's a shifty driver to the basket, scoring herself or creating for teammates. And even hit from distance with pull up triples. It was a great first impression of Rogers, which indicated she's likely one of the top seniors in Oklahoma. With a tough schedule already starting this month, Rogers is a must watch for college coaches. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1109013"],"_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-6af2429f31a70"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bonds is the anchor in the middle for the Lady Eagles and she was looking nimble on the court. On the block she can bully smaller posts, while also being too quick with fluid spin moves against similarly sized players. Her combo of power and finesse makes her a force around the rim as a reliable go to threat for a Del City team that is expected to compete for the 5A title. Add in tough rebounding and Bonds will likely be a walking double double this winter. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["642354"],"_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-6af2429f31a9e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Another senior who was locked for the Eagles is the sharpshooting Morgan. In a match up against Washington she was on fire from the jump. Knocking down multiple threes and showing her college level measurables on defense. The best instance came she drained a spot up three, got back on defense and ripped the opposing ball handler. She took it the other way and hit a 6 footer to make it a 5 point swing in about 30 seconds. Morgan is clearly the type of player who can change games quickly with her shooting and defense. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1828705"],"_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-6af2429f31ac9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Washington graduated one of their most successful senior classes and now it's on the sharpshooting Clary to help carry on their winning ways. She's the only senior on the squad, which will bring a sense of urgency to a very talented but younger squad . But it's not just intangibles that Clary brings to the table. The girl can flat out shoot it. Has a pure release and will make the defense pay for being left over. And will provide valuable floor spacing. Expect Clary to do the little things that go beyond the box score, along with hitting clutch threes this winter for the Lady Warriors. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1054460"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":1999663,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6af2429f31af1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">It was a first viewing of Hightower in over a year because of an ACL injury. Prior to that injury, she was one of the more impressive do it all players in the Class of 2027. While there was some rust athletically on Saturday, the two way impact was clear. She showed some of her point forward aspects with her ability to put the ball on the deck and drive to create look for others. Especially shooters along the perimeter. Her height and wingspan also gives her great versatility on defense. While she will help her guard heavy team with rebounding. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Expect Hightower to form one of the best one-two punches in 2A (and all of Oklahoma) with the previously mentioned Rogers. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
