Our #1 sophomore, Justin made problems for the defense throughout. He employed a deceptive dribble along with wonderful changes in speed. Frison scored 17 points, many of them from driving to the rim or hitting free throws.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1532545"],"_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-6798173b7e7c0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>1/25/25:</strong> Keron was very active against a tough Baylor School team. Springy, hungry. Jackson is certainly a college prospect. His level is a touch indecipherable because he leans more power forward than wing. Maybe a JuCo wing is his landing spot. Jackson was named Game MVP by the Dr. Pepper Classic. Scored 23 points.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2327064"],"_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-67981a9a6c4ef"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>1/25/25:</strong> Rugged rebounding. Kevin is signed to Indiana Wesleyan University. Though he is a smidgeon short for a Division I "5", Sacas is perfect as a NAIA-post player. Sacas works hard and does not need touches to impact the game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1551555"],"_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-67981d65d3890"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>1/25/25:</strong> Among the best uncommitted players in Tennessee, [player_tooltip player_id='1551555' first='Zane' last='Restelli'] played ok, not great by his high standard. At times he was too passive, perhaps with some deference to the team. Restelli passed up some "ok" shots for good shots by his teammates. As currently constructed he might have taken those looks himself. Restelli is just more seasoned than most of his teammates. When he attacked with his typical aggression the defense was inept. That is his game. Zane did take command in the fourth quarter as his Red Raiders tried to keep pace with Houston.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
