December Double Digit Dominance

December has been full of some good basketball already as players are gearing up for conference play. Here are some of the double digit scorers I have seen over the past couple of weeks. <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Grace-Crocker-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617594.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-365193 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Grace-Crocker-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617594-300x197.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a>Grace Crocker | Parkwood | G | 2022 17 points // 3 rebounds // 1 assist // 1 block Crocker made sure she was known as the shooter by the other team knocking down five in the game from behind the arc. She did well sliding into the openings, and it didn’t matter if these shots were contested or not. She was constantly in the way blocking the openings on defense making it harder for her opponents to get near the basket. Natalie Axtell | East Forsyth | G | 2022 21 points // 1 rebound // 1 steal Axtell (pictured above) was draining them from deep throughout the game. She did a great job catching the ball and creating her own separation from her defender to show off her shot. Her hands were active on defense knocking the ball away from her opponents as they tried to get around her. <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Zahra-Douglas-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617647.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-365195 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Zahra-Douglas-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617647-300x197.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a>[player_tooltip player_id="297204" first="Zahra" last="Douglas"] | Marvin Ridge | SF | 2023 19 points // 8 rebounds // 4 assists // 1 steal Douglas came out strong in the second half showing off her post moves. She had her back to the basket and scored with ease as she turned to face the hoop. She was crashing the boards on both ends and using offensive rebounds to get her some points even battling through contact for some old fashioned three point plays. <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Jade-Washington-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617695.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-365197 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Jade-Washington-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617695-300x197.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a>[player_tooltip player_id="297208" first="Jade" last="Washington"] | Parkwood | G | 2023 15 points // 6 rebounds // 4 assists // 2 steals // 1 block Washington came out hot showing off her ability to score at all three levels. She drove hard to the basket and shot from behind the arc. She also got inside to grab some rebounds using these as second chances to score some points, and she pushed the ball up the court with ease finding her teammates for their own points. <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Dearia-Page-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617769.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-365199 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Dearia-Page-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617769-300x197.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a>Dearia Page | North Meck | G | 2023 15 points // 7 rebounds // 1 assist // 2 steals Page came out with a vengeance being a nuisance on defense grabbing steals and deflecting passes. She was constantly running the court in transition to score some points or find her opponents cutting to the basket. She didn’t shy away from contact making sure she had a chance to score some points from the free throw line. <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Nevaeh-Farmer-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617823.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-365201 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Nevaeh-Farmer-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617823-300x197.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a>[player_tooltip player_id="254583" first="Nevaeh" last="Farmer"] | North Meck | G | 2023 12 points // 1 rebound // 3 assists // 7 steals // 1 block Farmer is one of the better on ball defenders in Charlotte making it difficult for guards to get by her at all. She anticipates well knowing where a ball handler is going to move and knocks the ball away or jumps into passing lanes to grab the steals. She pushes these up the court with ease for her own points or finds her open teammate. She certainly doesn’t shy away from contact underneath the basket, and she converts well from the free throw line. [player_tooltip player_id="172623" first="Amaya" last="Glenn"] | Reagan | G | 2023 12 points // 1 rebound // 3 assists // 2 steals Glenn knows how to drive hard to the basket weaving in and out of her opponents. She did a great job taking advantage of a defender that tried to jump a pass getting around them to the basket. She sees the floor well finding her open teammates for their own points. Her defense was a terror coming out in the second half causing deflections and grabbing a steal that turned into an and 1 advantage as she attacked the basket. <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Ella-Chepul-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617903.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-365204 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Ella-Chepul-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617903-300x197.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a>Ella Chepul | Marvin Ridge | SF | 2024 11 points // 5 rebounds // 2 blocks Chepul was ready to score as soon as she stepped on the court driving inside the paint to get her points. She ran the floor well making sure to fill in the lanes to score in transition. She stepped outside the arc and showed off her range shooting the ball, too. Her ability to crash the boards and use her height to grab rebounds was an asset. Reese Fritz | Marvin Ridge | G | 2024 10 points // 1 rebound // 1 assist Fritz came out hot shooting the ball from behind the arc in the second half cutting from baseline to baseline to find the open areas. She did well showing patience when letting a play develop in order to get the best opportunity to put the ball through the hoop for herself or her teammates. <a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Jocelyne-Grier-1-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617978.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-365206 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2021/12/Jocelyne-Grier-1-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1639617978-300x197.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a>Jocelyne Grier | North Meck | G | 2025 13 points // 3 rebounds // 1 assist // 2 steals Grier came right in to score five points on back to back possessions.
