Team Previews – Chaminade Julienne

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Coming off of a Division 3 state championship last season, the Chaminade Julienne Eagles are gearing up for another run at gold when the season gets started in a few weeks. They have two major P4 recruits along with several players looking to add to the mix and make this another memorable season in the GCL Coed Division. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>CJ has a very tough schedule the first two weeks, playing consecutive Saturday-Sunday games all against very formidable opponents. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Players to Watch</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1256789"],"_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-6aebb6d3320a1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cook had a very memorable freshman season. She has a ton D1 offers including several P4 schools. Cook had a great summer with her club team, and she worked on her game with her CJ team. Has expanded her game and extended her range a bit and plays with her back to the basket. Pushes the open floor and is a good playmaker, unselfish and a great team player. Her growth is huge and she will helped fill in the gaps with the loss of key seniors. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1256790"],"_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-6aebb7af76978"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She is the catalyst of what CJ wants to do, has the ball In hands a lot and has done a really good job of learning and applying it throughout the year last year. Her improvement is tremendous, another player with multiple D1 offers including P4 schools. Just went to Michigan State and Wisconsin for unofficials.. Able to move to different spots on the court, more vocal now and has added a very good perimeter game and confidence to her talented skill set. Likely the best defender in the Dayton area and well beyond.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1242658"],"_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-6aebb9553ac85"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the things I really liked about her game last season was the ability to put the ball in the basket from long range. She is also a high level softball player and has committed to the University of Dayton for softball. Has really worked hard on her defense over the summer, it has grown to another level Her and Michael are a headache for opponents. Steps into a good leadership role with a lot of experience and a state title under her belt. CJ will lean on her to provide a lot this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["808888"],"_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-6aebbd4ddd420"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lefty who transfered from Dayton Stivers last year and sat the last 11 games of the season. Look for her to make a nice impact this season, can play a bit of back-up point guard if needed, and an improving spot-up shooter. Can space the floor well and handle the rock. Good intangibles and will provide leadership as a senior this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Sleeper to Watch</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1992688"],"_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-6aebbf58e8d57"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She is only a sophomore and at 6'2, watch for a nice emergence from this prospect. She gives CJ a different dynamic where not everyone will have a 6'2 kid with her wingspan who can finish high and catches really well with a good touch. She has good untapped natural ability and did have a nice run toward the end of last season. Had a good summer on the circuit which is perfect for her, thrown into the fire and learn on the go. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
