Holiday Tournaments Standouts: Juniors Making Noise

<!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Holiday tournaments are taking place all across the state right now. Some started last week, others are getting going this weekend, but regardless of when they tip off, these events are always the best setting to see multiple college prospects compete in one day over a span of a few days. Below are a few juniors from around the state who have been showing out.</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["861181"],"_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-695024f32947d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>There's not a shot that Nellie isn't comfortable taking, and that's due to the high confidence in herself. She has been one, if not the major focal point, for this Rolling Meadows program, and she has been competitive in every matchup. There's still another gear that she can go, but as of now, she's been a major reason why the Mustangs are battling for wins on most nights.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["732509"],"_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-695024f329524"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>Noble has become one of the top prospects in this class regardless of position. From a frame standpoint, she has the collegiate build and the agility and athleticism to pair with it. Skill wise, she can be effective from the perimeter, but can throw her muscle around near the painted area. She has a great foundation of skills to build off on. Major upside.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["905482"],"_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-695024f329594"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>Brown has been making a ton of noise down in Quincy over the past couple of seasons. She's a player who simply gets the job done without all the extraness. She's crafty but not flashy, simple but highly effective when she's being used in a possession. Near the rim, she has a soft touch that's paired with a high motor and a ton of energy. She's at the top of her position for a reason. </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["728003"],"_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-695024f3295f9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>Fisher is an interesting prospect. She might be one of those players who can have a leap in her game at the next level, especially for a program that needs a playmaking scorer.

There's another notch to her game, and some of it has been on display this month. </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["852975"],"_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-695024f329662"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>One of the more versatile forwards in this class. Peetz has remained a player who can score from multiple spots on the floor due to her length, but I believe her playmaking ability is why she's one of the top players at her position. The IQ and ability to defend 1-3, and give the 4/5's trouble are major reasons why she is a two-way threat. </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
