Deeper Dive: Class 1A Region 2 Evaluations

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>After evaluating players throughout the 1A class as a whole, here is a look at just Region 2 of the Class. This highlights a few of the many talented players in the region that people should keep an eye on ahead of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1155068"],"_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-68fe6e316896d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lily Claire Lowe brings a game-winning skill set to the point guard position.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>She can knock down threes at a high volume and efficiently. She is great at moving around the perimeter and finding gaps for her shot against opposing defenses. Lowe showed this last season against Midway High School, where she knocked down four threes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">To go along with her shooting, she brings a great defensive game. She has good speed and is aggressive. These two facets of her game make her a high-level on-ball defender. She is also a solid defender in and around the paint.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["816926"],"_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-68fe6e31689c6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Senior for Midway High School does not let her height of 5'6" limit her game whatsoever.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Cawood at the guard position is an extremely good rebounder. She is great at cutting in front of opposing players when a shot goes up to get good positioning. Her willingness to play through contact also helps her in being a good rebounder.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">As far as her offensive game goes, she is an amazing shooter from deep range. She can shoot it from any spot around the arc and has the ability to shoot it from way beyond the line.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1241377"],"_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-68fe6e3168a0b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1241377' first='Kendall' last='Osborn'], much like Cawood mentioned above, is a great rebounding guard.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Osborn, although she is listed as a shooting guard, was one of the better rebounders on her team last season. In a game against Harriman, she showed this in full force, racking up 15 rebounds.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Along with her high-level rebounding game, she has a high-arcing three-point shot that she makes with great success. And she is also capable of scoring inside and around the paint. She has a great touch from that range.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["821877"],"_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-68fe6e3168a4c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Junior [player_tooltip player_id='821877' first='Ansley' last='Moore'], out of Harriman High School, is an efficient three-level scorer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Moore finds a way to capitalize on her scoring opportunities, no matter where she it at on the court. She has a pretty shot from the perimeter, but is just as effective inside the arc in knocking down jumpers. She is also a good finisher in transition. If she gives any sort of momentum going downhill, it is awfully difficult for opposing players to catch her.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">On defense, her speed translates well, making her a solid wing and guard defender.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["928326"],"_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-68fe6e3168a8d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sophomore out of Coalfield High School, [player_tooltip player_id='928326' first='Lily' last='Wright'], does not hesitate to use her height and speed advantage.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Against Jellico High School last season, Wright had seven buckets off fast breaks. The combination of her length and speed is a lethal combo at the high school level. Her jumper is also hard to guard at her size, and she has the capacity to create off the dribble. She is just overall extremely skilled on offense, and her advantages on that end show up in a big way on defense too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Wright can guard all five positions on the court at a high level. She is also great at generating both steals and blocks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
