She handles the ball with confidence, attacks gaps off the dribble, and displays strong court vision when finding cutters and open shooters. Her impact extends beyond scoring, as she battles on the glass and uses her size to protect the paint defensively.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1245983"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ae393c99408d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ngalieu brings energy and physicality to West Potomac's frontcourt, making her presence felt around the basket. The Second Team All-District selection attacks the glass on both ends, creates second-chance opportunities, and has shown the ability to step into a scoring role when needed. Defensively, her positioning and activity allow her to disrupt possessions, contest shots, and provide a consistent presence inside.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1357632"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ae393c9940d4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Conteh established herself as a dominant force in the paint, earning Cardinal District Player of the Year honors with her physicality and production on both ends of the floor. She uses her strength and footwork to establish position, finish through contact, and control the glass, including multiple 20-rebound performances. Her length and athleticism also make her a defensive threat, allowing her to protect the rim, disrupt passing lanes, and run the floor for transition opportunities.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["848973"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ae393c994116"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ellingson enters her final high school season at Paul VI after transferring from Gainesville, bringing perimeter shooting and playmaking ability to the Panthers. She has impressive range beyond the three-point line, a quick release, and the ability to find openings against zone defenses for mid-range scoring opportunities. Her court vision and movement without the ball make her an effective facilitator, and she consistently puts in the extra effort on the glass and in transition.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1249541"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ae393c994156"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Dallas is a long, athletic wing who brings versatility with her ability to play multiple positions and score at all three levels. She uses her size to shoot over smaller defenders, handles the ball well, and makes good reads to create scoring opportunities for her teammates. Her length and mobility allow her to defend multiple positions and contribute on the glass, giving her plenty of opportunities to build on the college interest she has already received.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
