<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2029 class is one of the more talented classes top to bottom that Ohio has had in several years. Not only is the top 10 loaded with high next level kids, you also have several who are continuing to climb the charts as their game grows, and their college interest grows.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are some who has seen their stock rise since the last update as we head into July.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1256782"],"_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-6a49036f01cbf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sarai is always a step ahead of everybody else on the court. Her defensive anticipation is next level, she reads things in advance, and makes plays look easy with her ball hawking defense and often times force mistakes which leads to easy buckets. She runs the floor extremely well, and finishes transition. She does a great job finishing at the rim in traffic, excellent body control, and her D1 offers say that she's ready to take her game to the next level. She jumps seven spots into the top 10 in her class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1241604"],"_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-6a4905b21e519"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Layla has done an incredible job working on her game and into becoming a D1 recruit. As the offers come in, her stock goes up. One thing that I love about her game is she does a great job posting and sealing her defender and calling for the ball, and if the guard gets it to her, you can forget about defending her. Finishes strong at the rim, has nice footwork and a good wingspan, which not only allows her to use her height to her advantage, she can also defend the passing lanes and protect the rim. Her game continues to grow. She jumps up a couple spots and is closing in on the top 10.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1305391"],"_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-6a4905b21e585"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brynn is a young lady who no longer is flying under the radar. She makes a huge jump inside the top 15 and for great reason, this young lady can play! Her strength in the paint is impressive, her work ethic is elite as she looks to mold her game into a solid D1 player. She's already proven that by getting an offer from Akron and she is no longer a hidden gem from me or anybody else.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1241276"],"_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-6a4906bc36e91"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ashlen makes a small jump, but moving in the right direction. She's a great leader as a sophomore for her team in a very tough conference, but she is an impressive guard with quickness, good handles, and the ability to distribute. She clearly can also light it up from the offensive end of the court, able to score in all three phases. Defensively, she will lock you down and create havoc.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1563655"],"_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-6a4909a39fbe2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">After a year displaying her talents at Lebanon, Khalia has moved to Winton Woods, where she will join their basketball program this season. Super athletic, hard nosed and a gritty guard who has a really good skillset and a high ceiling to become great. Sees the floor well, able to play a physical game or a finesse game. Her stock continues to rise and I'm excited to see her play at WW.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

The 2029 class is one of the more talented classes top to bottom that Ohio has had in several years. Not only is the top 10 loaded with high next level kids, you also have several who are continuing to climb the charts as their game grows, and their college interest grows.
