From [program_tooltip program_id='712426' first='Bluff' last='City'] to the Tri-Cities, kids are lacing them up and are prepared to put on a show for all to see. 901, 865, 423, 615, and others, all area codes will be well represented this week on the hardwood.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As school ball season loads up. We wanted to touch on a few girls from Mid-State who are ready to kick this season off and make a lot of noise. Here are some kids from Middle Tennessee you will need to keep your eye on as they duke it out this upcoming season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- 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":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Sa'miya Brown","_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":"5'11u0022","_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":"Cane Ridge","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"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-691cc211bd3b5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Athletic kid who was named District Player of the Year last season. Talented kid who is a downhill threat; she finds multiple ways to exploit an opponent's weakness. She can score from various spots on the floor; however, her defense is one of her calling cards. Look for her to stack back-to-back seasons of putting up similar numbers and leading the charge for a talented Cane Ridge ball club.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["899904"],"_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-691cc211bd42d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Shifty guard who will be looking to lead the Lady Bobcats in multiple ways this season. A kid who can change pace with ease, with the ball in her hands, no telling what's gonna happen. From throwing dot passes to open teammates to putting kids on skates as she breaks ankles, Erica is a super tough kid who is going to give you all she has on every possession. Keep tabs on this young lady as she is a sleeper in the Metro-Nashville area.<br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["636398"],"_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-691cc211bd47f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She's a gamer who is going to put up solid numbers consistently. From scoring to contributing on defense, she will impact the game in multiple ways, as she is one of the leading catalysts for her team. When she's hot, she's hard to stop. Once she gets going, slowing her down becomes a tall task. Though she is known for her scoring, she has a keen awareness of where her teammates are at all times on the floor, delivering timely passes to them that enable them to score with ease. She is going to be a big-time factor in this team's attack. The Kentucky State commit is looking to get it going one more time in the Music City.<br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["509171"],"_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-691cc211bd4c9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Super tough kid who plays with a lot of relentless energy and effort. She can dial it up from deep at a consistent clip or take you off the dribble to get to a favorable spot. She will defend, communicate, and be the spark nightly for the LHS program. She is a disruptive force that brings it each time she steps onto the floor. Look for her to be the star attraction as LHS has a good shot of heading towards state contention this upcoming season.<br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1133751"],"_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-691cc211bd510"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This kid is a double-double machine. Playing with relentless energy, she will impact the game in more ways than one. From scoring in double figures in multiple ways to cleaning up on the glass, she is her team's heartbeat and brings the boom every single night. Active on the defensive end, she lets other teams know that whenever she is on the floor, you'd better have your A squad out there ready to go toe-to-toe with her and her mates. Super talented kid who is primed and ready to have another breakout season. College coaches make sure to take notice of this young lady as she gets after it this upcoming season.<br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
