Underclassmen to Watch in Colonial-Liberty Division: 

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>You should keep an eye on these sophomores and freshmen in the always competitive Colonial-Liberty division this season. The division is filled with group 1 and 2 schools such as Haddon Township, Haddon Heights, Sterling, West Deptford, Haddonfield, and Woodbury. Check out our list below.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["835864"],"_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-67671d8a370ac"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the best New Jersey has to offer in the class of 2027, Harris is already building on an outstanding freshmen campaign. She can take her signature three-ball from anywhere on the court but also has no problem driving for a layup. She's averaging a team-leading 18.5 points a game through two contests. There's a possibility that the 5'6" shooting guard could break the 1,000 career points barrier by the end of the season, which is rarely achieved by any sophomore. Look for her to continue to draw fouls as well, as she made 78 free throws as a rookie and already has 11 this winter.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":1117216,"_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Abby Weideman","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'10u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"12125","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Haddon Township","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"None","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67671d8a3721b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Weideman has taken a huge leap in her performance as a freshman to now as a sophomore, and that's been showcased throughout her first three games. The Hawks have a 3-0 record behind Weideman's 26 points. She's also shown a decent defensive effort with five steals. In a divisional victory over West Deptford on December 21, she scored 12 points, earning her SJIBT player of the game honors. As you can see in the attached video tweet below, the 5'10 shooting guard has developed a knack for shooting threes from all over the court. Expect her to continue playing at a high level as the season progresses.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/tortreports/status/1870555115117310001">https://twitter.com/tortreports/status/1870555115117310001</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["865698"],"_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":1117661,"_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"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67682855dd27f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Want a player that can do it all? Three? Foul shot from the line? Drive and layup? Well, here she is. As only a freshman, Walters led Haddonfield to the South Jersey Group 2 semifinal round and a 10-1 win-loss record against Colonial Liberty opponents last year. Now, the 5'6" combo guard is back playing at an even higher level and ready to give her opponents nightmares again.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She's averaging 14 points a game through three contests so far this winter. Walters trained with <em>Delaney Skills</em>, led by Kingsway coach Jeanine Delaney and her sons, throughout the summer helping to vastly improve her shot and form.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":1117667,"_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Kaitlyn Martin","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2028","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"12124","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Haddon Township","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"N/A","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67682855dd357"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This is one of those years where it's hard to find talented, ready-to-contribute freshmen in not only the Colonial-Liberty division but across the whole region. After a standout rookie soccer season in which she led the Lady Hawks to the South Jersey Group 1 title, Martin certainly stands out as a dual-sport athlete and will be looking to make a similar impact on the basketball court.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">As she continues to learn and get adjusted to contributing to this talented offense, the forward has shown to be efficient rebounding, with 5.5 rebounds per game early in this young season. She also has a nice step-back three, which makes this rookie just as dangerous as anyone else on this talented Hawks' roster.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">See the clip below to watch a three she made in her recent game against West Deptford:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/tortreports/status/1870521901883498693">https://twitter.com/tortreports/status/1870521901883498693</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["959832"],"_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-67682855dd3c9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Benjamin's offseason work has paid off, and she has shown that she is capable of being Acadia's sidekick on the court this winter. She opened the season with three three-pointers in a road win at Holy Cross Prep. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She already has half the amount of points through three contests (29) as she did in 2023-2024 (58). Look for Benjamin to be a good option for an outside three-ball as she continues to improve and get comfortable contributing to this offense.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
