Region 1 Outlook & Who to Watch

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Region 1 is as tough as any other year and Davis seems to have made a statement with their schedule and some high quality wins and they even looked tough in their losses. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Off The Radar Talent</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1278451"],"_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-6779e79bec8e3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Turley has been very consistent and he is providing some quality scoring and he defends at a high level.

Another big guard that can put the ball in the hoop. He moves the ball well and he is a solid rebounder. A lot of + in his game when he is on the floor. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2530309"],"_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-6779e79bec9b8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Olpin has been huge and he is a bucket from deep as he has 32 made three-pointers right now.

Good size as a rebounding wing that has a solid motor. He is a wing to track as a small school talent. Maybe an NWAC or D3 type of player. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Others</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2539677' first='Cameron' last='Brower'] || Farmington</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2530289' first='Dylan' last='Bruce'] || Fremont</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Top Tier Talent</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1272410' first='Coleman' last='Atwater'] || Davis</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1363979' first='Easton' last='Duft'] || Fremont</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2218132' first='Malakai' last='Tobler'] || Farmington</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1598260' first='Ryder' last='Howe'] || Weber</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1724368' first='Karter' last='Miller'] || Layton</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1958347' first='Skylar' last='Orton'] || Syracuse</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Outlook</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Layton and Davis are the frontrunners.
