Impressive Individual Performances

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As the second half of the season, mostly being conference play which is the most important games, I am taking a look back at some top individual performances from athletes from the beginning half of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1863195' first='Jackson' last='Whitaker'] - 2026 - Liberty HS</strong></em> - Whitaker is a guard who attacks the paint well and knows which decisions are the right ones to make in each situation. He plays calm under pressure and has a fantastic jump shot. He isn't afraid to air it out any given night, against Bellevue he set a school record with 10 three pointers made. Jackson would score 34 points in the game, shooting 10/16 from deep.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1587998' first='Noah' last='Schow'] - 2025 - Tenino HS</em></strong> - Noah is a strong wing who can play a plethora of positions. He handles the ball well and uses his frame well to his advantage down in the paint and when going against bigger opposing players. His game has grown a lot since the end of last season as he is more well rounded. Noah dropped 33 points and 16 rebounds against Black Hills earlier this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1485542' first='Davis' last='Fogle'] - 2025 - Anacortes HS </strong></em>- Davis is a top 2 player in the entire 2025 class for a reason. He is a 4 star prospect who is getting big time looks at the Division 1 level and has been still showing off improvements on the court. His crossover is deadly and he can out jump anyone he goes against. He jumper his smooth and he's overall an elite 3 level scorer. Against Burlington-Edison earlier this year, Davis dropped 41 points, 15 rebounds, and 11 assists.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1409013' first='Peter' last='Dress'] - 2024 - Kamiakin HS </strong></em>- Peter is a stud on the court. He has a well rounded offensive game, being able to handle the ball nicely and play at an elite level from the wing or in the high post. He's a lights out shooter, one of the top in the 2024 class. He shoots over 50% from the field and is just as effective from deep. Against Chiawana, Dress had 40 points and 10 rebounds in a big win for the team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2153079' first='Caleb' last='Bowden'] - 2024 - Auburn Mountainview HS</strong></em> - Caleb plays with a ton of energy, providing a big spark for his team when he is on the court. He is lighting quick, having great defensive instincts. Offensively, he works well off the dribble. He is most effective when putting the ball on the ground and getting to the bucket. He is crafty and athletic, so he is able to finish around the rim nicely. In a game against Auburn Riverside, Bowden dropped 26 points, a career high, and also pulled down 13 rebounds.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
