<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 8th Region is absolutely LOADED! While seniors have already made their mark, the Class of 2027 has taken over the conversation! These juniors are not waiting their turn. They are producing, competing, and changing games RIGHT NOW! From knockdown shooters to dominant post players and relentless competitors, this group is making serious noise across the region. These are true must see talents and they have been all season!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["494689"],"_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-69938b0f0b0f9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Elin is an extremely gifted shooter and one of the most dangerous offensive threats in the region. The moment she crosses half court, defenses have to locate her. She can score at all three levels and has deep range that stretches defenses thin. What separates her even more is her defensive activity. She anticipates passing lanes, gets deflections, and turns defense into offense quickly. Elin is averaging 20.3 ppg while leading her team in three pointers and free throws, and she is top two in rebounds. That is production in every phase of the game!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["739708"],"_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-69938b0f0b192"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brynli is arguably the best junior in the region and one of the most talked about players across the state. She impacts the game in every possible way. A gifted scorer at all three levels, she can break defenders down off the dribble, knock down perimeter shots, and finish through contact. She defends at a high level, handles the ball with confidence, and leads vocally on the floor. Brynli is averaging 18.2 ppg while leading her team in three pointers and free throws. Her all around game makes her a true game changer every single night.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["636721"],"_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-69938b0f0b227"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brynn is an elite outside shooter who forces defenses to extend far beyond the arc. But she is far more than just a perimeter threat. She attacks closeouts, gets downhill, and consistently finds ways to get to the free throw line. Her motor never slows down and she makes impact plays for four quarters. Brynn is averaging 18.4 ppg while leading her team in free throw attempts, free throws made, and three point baskets. When the moment is big, she is ready for it!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["729575"],"_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-69938b0f0b2c4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Olivia is a high level scorer who thrives attacking the rim and pulling up in the mid range. She plays with strength, confidence, and a scorer's mentality. Already committed to Southeastern University, she continues to elevate her game and production. Olivia is averaging 21 ppg, shooting 82.3 percent from the free throw line, and pulling down 7.5 rebounds per game. She is a consistent double digit scorer who can take over stretches of a game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1173071"],"_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-69938b0f0b344"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brooklyn is an elite athlete who brings explosiveness every time she steps on the floor. She finishes strong around the basket and has a knack for drawing contact and getting to the free throw line. Her ability to elevate and outwork defenders gives her a major edge. Brooklyn is averaging 13.7 ppg while leading her team in free throws attempted. Her athleticism and energy provide a spark that shifts momentum quickly.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1590324"],"_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-69938b0f0b3c1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lily plays the game like a true floor general. She leads with her voice and her actions, controlling tempo and making sure her team is organized on both ends. Defensively, she is tough, physical, and willing to do the dirty work. Offensively, she contributes across the board and fills up multiple stat categories. Lily is leading her team in several areas including 11 ppg, free throws made, free throw percentage, and rebounds. Her leadership and versatility make her invaluable.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
