<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With a month left in their Freshman seasons, several players have emerged in this 2029 class over the last two months.

An excellent shot blocker whose offensive game continues to improve, Grivna is likely not done growing. With his fluid athleticism and the way he is consistently improving, Mason could be the top player in this class for a long time.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2880415"],"_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-69791b4cc835c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ty has a high skill level already and is only going to keep getting better as he gets older.

Long term, Sweeney has the potential to be the best point guard in this class and this class is LOADED with point guards. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2869959"],"_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-69791b4cc84bb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Moving into the top 5, Owens is in the midst of a really strong season for a really good Ashland team.

Once he's in there, Owens is a good finisher and above average passer who keeps getting better and better. Long term, number 5 may be too low for him.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

Ty has a high skill level already and is only going to keep getting better as he gets older. Capable of operating as a playmaker with the ball in his hands, Bryant is a mismatch for most opponents because he can play any position on the court. Also a good shot blocker, Ty is a high ceiling, low floor prospect.

Evaluations are normally subscriber-only but when an athlete subscribes, theirs becomes free for all readers. Subscribing doesn't change who the Scout covers, it changes who gets to see it.
