She is a threat to score from the perimeter, does a good job capitalizing on fast-break opportunities, and bring consistent energy and effort on defense. With a couple key seniors graduating, Lydia is expected to step into the role of primary scorer for the Lady Redhounds next season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1228855"],"_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-68494f4ba2491"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hazard wrapped up a solid 17-13 season, capturing the 54th District title and came very close to making the trip to Rupp Arena. A big reason for their success was the play of [player_tooltip player_id='1228855' first='Braylynn' last='Eddington']. She averaged a double-double with 10.7 points and a team-leading 10.6 rebounds per game, and is establishing herself as one of the top post players in the region. Braylynn finishes at a high rate around the rim, and is not afraid to get it there and get dirty for rebounds. She's also a good rim protector and interior defender, with the ability to force turnovers and swat shots in the paint. The Lady Bulldogs could very well be the team to beat in the 14th Region next season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1241116"],"_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-68494f4ba24fc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1241116' first='Madeline' last='Davenport'] averaged 5.2 points per game and was a steady contributor for Bowling Green, a program that had made five straight state tournament appearances before falling in the 4th Region semifinals last season. With good size at 5'8", Maddie is a reliable perimeter threat who shoots the deep ball at a strong clip and has the ability to heat up in a hurry. After losing the top scorer to graduation, Maddie will be relied on heavily to step into a bigger offensive role in her junior season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1256873"],"_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-68494f4ba2565"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1256873' first='Gracie' last='Barton'] made a strong impact this past season, averaging 6.7 points per game and finishing as Bell County's second-leading rebounder with 9.8 boards per contest. She is a wing player with good size and length who can stretch the defense with her three-point shooting and create matchup problems on the perimeter. She is also a high-level rebounder, and knows how to make her presence felt on the defensive end with blocks and steals</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1256356"],"_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-68494f4ba25b7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1256356' first='Abigail' last='Heatherly'], the younger sister of [player_tooltip player_id='376807' first='Adeline' last='Heatherly'], was a meaningful contributor for Wayne County as a sophomore. She averaged 9.2 points and 2.5 rebounds per game while shooting 35.4% from beyond the arc. Abigail competes hard on both ends of the floor. She can fill it up from three-point land and shows real promise as a perimeter defender, with quick feet and active hands. Abigail is definitely one to watch as her career progresses.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
