He gets to the free throw line and will dribble drive thru traffic. He is an incredible rebounder in and out of his area with his supreme bounce. He is very quick to defend the passing lanes to collect steals and makes tough plays out of nothing. He made clutch free throws down the stretch in a tight game. He scored around 10 points.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1482166' first='John' last='Fahrendorf'] Central</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A bigger scoring guard is a catch and shoot three point sniper with a high arcing pretty shooting stroke that looks good on every attempt. He runs the floor for layups and he is a plus rebounder for position. He is also in the passing lanes on defense and scored 10 points in their win.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1570935' first='Kyler' last='Frye'] McClintock&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A scoring lead guard will make players around him better but he is a natural scorer. He has a sharp mid-range game that is nearly impossible to defend since he rise up so quickly. He can get into the lane and shows advanced body control with euro steps to score or will get to the free throw line. He scored around 10 points.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1697293' first='Ryker' last='Hughes'] Sandra Day O'Connor&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A face-up power forward is the teams glue guy who will dive on the floor, rebound, make a play but then step out and shoot the three. He fights harder then most with a real motor and toughness to compete.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1951728' first='Zachary' last='Jiggens'] ALA Ironwood&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A pure point guard who has next level court vision with drive and kicks, pocket passes, post entry passes perfectly and just plays at a good pace. He keeps the ball alive versus heavy pressure. He will score it with offensive rebound put backs, pull-up threes, dribble drives, fall aways in the post and will score getting downhill with either hand. He scored 11+ points.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1679274' first='Crew' last='Jorde'] Mesquite</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An undersized scoring lead guard with a happy trigger. He will dribble drive to the basket to score, he comes with deep three point range with a super quick release and loves the floater game. He can create his own separation to get his shot off and scored 13 points.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2640544' first='King' last='Kalikilwa'] West Point&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A two-way guard will lock you up with his quick hands, feet and plus length. He will score with threes off the catch, blow by with a quick first step and he has a nice euro step on the break. He made a clutch three with one minute to go and scored 10 points.   </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2878349' first='Dom' last='Lott'] Sandra Day O'Connor&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A physical guard will score and defend multiple positions. He loves getting downhill and scoring thru the contact and his perimeter shooting keeps improving every year. He will score on the glass off of put backs and will do the little things to win a game. He scored 6 points.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2147243' first='Jaden' last='Rodgers'] Cienega&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A tough and physical two-way scoring guard looked like a 3 and D type. He will hit the three off the catch and he closes out to shooters impressively. He will block shots using his length, toughness and quickness laterally to keep his opponents in front of him on defense. He scored 8 points and slowed down most of his opponents all game long.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1768201' first='Paxton' last='Tamlyn'] Valley Christian&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An athletic combo guard is a good passer and defender. He is strong and tough to rebound in and out of his area for his position with next level bounce. He gets off the ground quickly and will on put backs. He can make a play for a teammate and hit the three off the catch. He scored 10 points.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
