He is a player who is a more effective scorer off the dribble drive and attacking the rim in transition. Emmanuel uses his length and leaping ability to his advantage in the mid-range and on the boards. His all-around play for Rosepine will make them a team to watch this season in class 2A. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2677921"],"_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"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67554c763f453"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Flugence is a two sport star for Crowley. His aggressiveness that services him well on the gridiron works for him on the hardwood as well. Flugence reads passing lanes like a defensive back and switches ends of the floor quickly. He finishes through contact with either hand making teams pay for turning the ball over. Flugence can also make outside jumpers to keep teams honest when defending him. He is a player who keeps teams off balance with his two-way play. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2677865"],"_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"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6755457c0ce21"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gregory is one of the better point guards in class C and in this class. He is very good at handling everything that deals with point guard play. Gregory is very good at the high screen and roll. He can probe the lane or knockdown the open jumper off of the action from the high. middle screen. Gregory also knows how to find shooters on the perimeter from the action. He is a high IQ player who reads the floor well. Kaleb can hurt a defense in multiple ways. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2550945"],"_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"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6755457c0ce72"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Jesuit forward is a versatile offensive player and is very deserving of his placement in the new rankings. Brewer is a player who can score on multiple levels in the half court. He can score in the paint and shoot over defenses from three. Rebounding is also an asset of his. With his ability to perform multiple task on the court, he is a worthy addition to the rankings. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2677134"],"_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"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6755457c0ceb8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Parlow is an all-state performer in Class 5A. So, his addition to the rankings is one that is very deserving. Michael is a guard/wing who is a legitimate threat from multiple levels on offense. He is best when he is attacking the rim and finishing at it. Parlow can also defend multiple positions on the perimeter making him a high level, two-way player. His ability to play both ends makes him an attractive player for the next level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2674556"],"_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"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6755457c0cef8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sykes is a player who can get his team's offense going by attacking the rim. He believes in driving to the goal and attempting to finish over, around, or through defenders. Sykes has a quick first step and passes by his initial defender before the defense rotates. Once he is at the rim, he is either finishing or shooting free throws. While he has the ability to shoot from outside, Sykes loves to finish down hill, in the paint. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Players like <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2677905' first='Benjamin' last='Case']</strong>, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2410739' first='Terin' last='Landor']</strong>, and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2677876' first='Kevin' last='Scott']</strong> were added to the class of 2025 in December. They will impact their team's success just like the players listed above. Look for the new additions to also be named when postseason awards come around as well. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
