<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Hines continues to put up staggering numbers for the Eagles, dominating one-on-one matchups with a great handle and unreal shot-making ability. The junior CG is lethal off the dribble and has remarkable range. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='391323' first='Mila' last='Espinoza'] | Volcano Vista</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='635360' first='Shanae' last='Silva'] | Mesa Vista</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>20 Points & 5 Steals vs Mora 59-14 (W)</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Shanae had it going offensively for the Trojans, helping Mesa Vista cruise to a victory over Mora. Shanae shot 53 percent from the field overall (7/13), connecting on multiple three-pointers (2/4) and was perfect from the free-throw line (4/4). </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='901168' first='Monique' last='Arrietta'] | Pojoaque Valley</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>15 Points & 5 Rebounds @ Los Alamos 53-45 (L)</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Arrietta is a 5'1" PG that can score at all three-levels -- beyond the arc, in the midrange and at the rim -- for the Elkettes. It was a valiant effort from Monique as she finished 5/11 from the field, including going 1/2 from deep. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='391245' first='Kapiolani' last='Anitielu'] | Farmington</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>DBL-DBL: 30 Points, 10 rebounds & 4 Blocks vs Sandia 75-68 (W)</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Eastern Wyoming signee, was the best player on the court, making winning plays on both ends of the floor. Kapiolani was exceptional with the rock in her hands, going 10/12 from the floor. Anitielu was determined to make a statement, collecting rebounds left and right and altering opposing players' shot attempts.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='648195' first='Kjani' last='Anitielu'] | Farmington</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>21 Points vs Sandia 75-68 (W)</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Arguably the best showing of the season for Kjani as the sophomore was magnificent for the Scorpions particularly on the offensive end. Nearly a perfect outing shooting the ball as Kjani went 6/6 on FGs, which includes going 2/2 from 3-point land and 7/8 from the free-throw line.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='357723' first='Marsai' last='Martinez'] | West Mesa</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>14 Points, 4 Rebounds & 3 Steals @ La Cueva 65-31 (L)</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Martinez has a great motor and plays with tremendous energy. The senior has active hands and does a good job of causing deflections and forcing turnovers. Marsai is comfortable using her off hand (left) to finish in the lane amongst the trees and does a good job of converting at the line (3/4). </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='357695' first='Zarai' last='Lewis'] | Clovis</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>19 Points, 5 Rebounds & 4 Assists @ Roswell 55-51 (W)</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Lewis was efficient scoring at all three-levels -- 7/11 from the field overall, including going 2/5 from behind the arc, and 3/4 from the foul-line -- while also getting teammates open looks in the halfcourt. The senior SG, has been a dependable first-option for the Wildcats all season long. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='403382' first='Kailyn' last='Jefferson'] | Clovis</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>14 Points @ Roswell 55-51 (W)</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Jefferson went 6/14 on field-goal attempts, doing most of her damage within the three-point line. The hardworking forward often finds herself in great position thanks to her effort, providing much needed relief points for the Wildcats, in the form of transition layups and or put-backs. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='648234' first='Ceanna' last='McKines'] | Mayfield</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>DBL-DBL: 16 Points & 13 Rebounds @ Las Cruces 52-26 (W)</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Ceanna was 5/8 from the floor and 6/8 from the charity stripe leading the Trojans in both departments. McKines was relentless on the glass as she collected six offensive-rebounds versus the Bulldawgs, giving Mayfield multiple 2nd chance opportunities. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='839434' first='Zaiyah' last='Hawley'] | Albuquerque High</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>15 Points @ Santa Fe 52-21 (W)</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Hawley is a promising young PG for AHS capable of torching opposing teams with her smooth jumper. All of Hawley's points versus the Demons came via the 3ball, as Zaiyah hade five 3PM on the evening for the Bulldogs who are scorching hot in District Play. </p>

<p class="has-text-align-left">[player_tooltip player_id='467054' first='Aleena' last='Rodriguez'] | Eunice</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Rodriguez is a lefty sharp-shooter, whose confidence is at an all-time high. Aleena is not shy to let it fly from behind the arc, with range extending out to 23 feet. The Junior has been great in catch & shoot situations from the corners and in DHO's from the top of the key, as well as from the free-throw line extended. Rodriguez has also developed into a proficient rebounder on the weakside, no longer ball watching, positioning herself in the correct areas. </p>

The junior is a handful around the basket, possessing good size and touch. Rylie does a good job of keeping opposing defenders on their toes as she can score in the midrange and at the rim. </p>
