<p>As the high school season begins, rosters are being released and I'm going to be previewing each team from the 6A and 5A levels. I'll go over each team's key players going into this coming season, list the returners/newcomers, and key departures. Here is the preview of the Hood River Valley Eagles (5A) of the Northwest Oregon Conference.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Poole hustles, communicates, and plays with defensive focus, closing out well on shooters. He stretches the floor with his 3-point shot and attacks the rim without shying from contact. Quick in transition and unselfish in finding teammates, he showed the kind of two-way impact coaches value.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Ybarra, is a tough and reliable 3-and-D presence in the backcourt. He's quick, competes defensively, and doesn't shy away from contact despite his size. Offensively, Ybarra is a decent three-point shooter and a smart passer who keeps the ball moving. His defensive effort, decision-making, and willingness to play physical make him a steady, team-first guard.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Grant Dunn, a 6'4" forward, is a high-impact defender with the length and instincts to protect the rim. He brings strong defensive presence, rebounds his position well, and does the dirty work on both ends. Offensively, Dunn can move the ball effectively and has shown the ability to step out and knock down the occasional three, adding to his overall versatility.</p>
