Wisconsin Freshman Showcase: Top Players (Part 1)

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The amount of freshman talent was off the charts at the Wisconsin Freshman Showcase on Sunday. Here are just a few of the many players that caught my eye.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["874763"],"_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-6aa20a9d7b2a0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Arnold showed the complete package at The Champion Center on Sunday and stood out as one of my top players. One of the better shooters, Arnold proved that she does not need much room to get off her deadly accurate outside shot. Solid with the rock, Arnold showed tight handles and great vision making the correct read seemingly every time she had the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1241431"],"_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-6aa20a9d7b30c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This was my first time watching Wallace play but she definitely impressed me! A true offensive weapon, Wallace had no problems getting downhill and finishing with a nice bag of floaters and runners. Although a bit undersized, Wallace played tough post defense, against bigger players, and competed on the glass due to her positioning and high motor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["879655"],"_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-6aa20a9d7b371"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the top players, on Sunday, it is easy to see why Fulcer has exploded up the rankings for the class of 2030. One of the more dynamic players, with the ball, the 5-11 Kimberly product scored in a variety of ways including a tough angled layup after a nice backdoor cut, a smooth off-hand finish in traffic, and a plethora of pretty looking mid to long range jumpers. Defensively she guarded aggressively, moved her feet, and showed great anticipation in the passing lanes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["884817"],"_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-6aa20a9d7b3c2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bauer, being from the western part of the state, was a player that I was unfamiliar with before Sunday but not anymore! One of the more skilled players, I was impressed by her overall feel for the game and how smooth and easy everything looks to her. Clearly a "gym rat" Bauer plays with high energy and is the type of player that makes her teammates better. One of the more explosive players, with the ball Bauer had no problem getting to the hoop, at will, and finishing comfortably with either hand. Not the tallest player on the court, Bauer was one of the stronger rebounders due to her strength and quickness betting her opponents to the ball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
