<p>Calling someone a glue guy or girl or calling them a role-player has a negative connotation. These players are integral to a team's success and should be celebrated. You have to remember, too, being in this role, you'll always be able to find a spot on a team by doing the little things.</p>

Demi was the second-best player on a tremendous Gainesville team. She scored in the paint a lot and was a go-to offensive option when she could flex her ball handling and passing at her size. At PVI, she likely won't be someone the team consistently looks to provide big-scoring nights. Demi's most impactful skill may be her defensive versatility. She is a great athlete, and at 6'0, she will add to a PVI team that should be great on defense. She'll do other things well, like rebound and pass.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='883677' first='Frances' last='Shapiro'] ","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"5'8u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"12121","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"Washington-Liberty","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_1_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='883677' first='Frances' last='Shapiro'] is another name that her role is outgrowing this list. But so far, from what I've seen, Frances does all the small things well. Frances can shoot the ball well; her defensive activity is one of my favorite things about her. She rebounds well and is solid at attacking the rim when needed. Frances is talented, and Washington-Liberty is going to be better this year. If that happens, I see it being because Frances has a big scoring year.

They've won 4 straight state titles because of their smothering defense. Avery is the biggest reason for this team dominating teams on defense over the past few years. Avery makes life difficult for opposing teams by blocking shots and collecting rebounds. She is an intelligent defender who impacts every game she plays. Avery is a pretty slept-on offensive contributor, but her most significant contribution to this team is her rebounding and defense.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='808834' first='Hannah' last='Wakefield'] ","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"5'6u0022","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"12125","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"[player_tooltip player_id='808834' first='Hannah' last='Wakefield'] ","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_4_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='808834' first='Hannah' last='Wakefield'] is a fantastic three-and-d player.
