<p>Lissy always had a versatile skillset with a dangerous 3-point shot. However, she really let that 3 ball fly freely and swished them at a higher clip than ever before in these past four months! Her efficiency spoke volumes to the work she put in behind the scenes to make the defense pay. Giving up too much space and going under the screen are terrible ideas when she has a look from the perimeter. Some of her best performances this year came at the AC Showcase and at Jersey Live [with St. John Vianney]. </p>

<p>A run with the Shoreshots this summer was just what the doctor ordered! Her guard play was really elevated as the season progressed, with her change of direction looking sharper and quicker. Her strengths have always been her transition game and 3-point shooting, but proved this season to be more than just one speed! She was able to show great deceleration and the ability to stop on a dime and adjust. She transformed into a much more well-rounded guard this summer.</p>

<p>Not only did Cheech's 3 ball improve, but she also showed off a clutch gene where she thrived with the ball in her hands in tight situations. It didn't matter the caliber of competition, she approached every opponent the same and showed no mercy. Her 3-point shot fell at a much higher clip than before and proved dangerous both stepping into her shot and off the catch. At full strength and health, she proved why she's one of the very best in her class. </p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1273249' first='Siena' last='Jaworski']</strong></p>

<p>Siena approached every game as if it was a track meet. Her goal was to run the opponent off the court and completely tire them out. Well, mission accomplished! She looked quicker this summer than she did during her sophomore season at EHT, and that's saying something considering she blazed paths all winter long! Her motor was absolutely relentless, able to stay on the floor for long stretches and push the pace without looking gassed. Her ability to look energized from start to finish will pay dividends this winter with the Eagles, where she rarely sees the bench.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='865920' first='Trinitee' last='McKellar']</strong></p>

<p>Trinitee got her weight up this summer and showed the ability to consistently finish through contact at the rim. She was able to put the ball on the deck aggressively, maintain body & ball control, and absorb the hits on the layup to get the and-1. She mastered the art of completing the play, which, in turn, earned her several free points at the stripe per game. In crucial moments, she can be relied on to deliver around the basket through fierce defense and the double-team.</p>
