<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As the summer season comes to a close, a brand new high school season arises. Opportunity is knocking, and there are plenty of superstars waiting to answer the door. From the class of 2027, here are several juniors on my list who have raised eyebrows this summer and are looking to translate that success to the high school scene. Let's talk about it. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2048132"],"_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-689a7ef366c89"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2048132' first='Luke' last='Howery'] has established himself as one of the best guards in his class. Being able to create space from his defender while hitting heavily contested shots makes him a lethal scorer from all three levels of the floor. At 6'5, Howery plays outstanding defense and constantly puts his hands up on shooters. Having mastered his all-around game, [player_tooltip player_id='2048132' first='Luke' last='Howery'] will be a name you won't want to miss. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2392479"],"_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-689a7ef366d33"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2392479' first='Jack' last='Tomlinson'] is competing in a top-notch continental league this fall, and he will be one of the highest scorers on Rock Canyon's roster come this fall, paired with Jacob David. Tomlinson has a smooth flow to his game that allows him to score inside and out. Always shot ready, defenses can't afford to give Tomlinson an inch of room, no matter where he is on the hardwood. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2824348"],"_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-689a7ef366dbf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2824348' first='Romon' last='Boyd'] is as versatile as it gets when it comes to player profiles. Boyd backs this up, as he's able to snag plenty of rebounds at 6'5 while dictating the tempo on offense. Boyd stays poised and communicates with his teammates often and efficiently. With a dominating summer with HoopTherapy, Boyd will carry this momentum to Fountain Ft Carson this fall. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2257271"],"_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-689a7ef366e96"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2257271' first='Sam' last='Mielenz'] is coming off a monstrous summer with the Morgan Dawgz, having dropped multiple 40+ point games. Mielenz takes a tactical approach to his offensive scheme and finds creative ways to score the rock. Throughout the entirety of any contest, you'll find Mielenz supporting his teammates and hyper-focused in huddles. With two more high school seasons to go, Mielenz will continue to develop into the superstar he's becoming. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2257260"],"_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-689a7ef366f20"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2257260' first='Jax' last='Poole'] has developed and fine-tuned his craft this summer through his 2-way domination. Poole guards his matchup tightly and doesn't allow an inch of room for his competition. At 6'0, Poole blows by defenders and earns multiple trips to the free throw line each game. Loveland High School should be one of your destinations this fall to watch Poole thrive on an increased volume. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
