17u (2nd) Team All Tournament Dynasty Region Kickoff

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Picking 10 players this weekend was tough. Some stood out ore thab others with strong games. Others stood out after a while of watching them play over couple games. I will admit not having rosters on some made it hard as well. Again these are the players I saw which I am sure I missed some. Hit with those highlights at X @coachjvick1. Or follow IG @coach_jvick</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1093269"],"_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-67f668b88f465"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A 2027 who has great size and is a very versatile player. Stood out both days of the tournament with her hustle and ability to score inside the arch. Sunday, she showed more range hitting several 3;s. First event seeing her play and a player I will be following.

She continued to find ways to score for her team. A very nice mid-range player that attacked the gaps all tournament. Aggressive on the ball defense and all-out effort was very impressive as well.

Excellent defender at the rim allowed the guards to pressure the ball knowing the basket was protected. A 2026 that should land somewhere when her high school playing days are done.

Mid-range jumpers to go along with outside filled the needs of the combo guard. Rebounding ability and inside toughness on defense filled the forward position.

Showed great body control to draw the contact and finish the play. Aggressive rebounder on the offensive end and did an excellent job of walling up on the defensive end. Just liked the way she moved around the opponent getting the paint on offensive and defense. A rebounder that found a way to keep the play alive with hands and jumping ability. First time seeing this young play in a event and she got my attention with her play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
