No. 2 in Kentucky for a Reason: South Oldham Girls Deliver

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>South Oldham's girls proved why they are 2nd in Kentucky in their recent victory against Assumption. The Rockets seemed unstoppable in the second half. Keeping the ball in the offensive third was key to their success. Consistent passing and wide play helped them dominate the Dragons. While the whole team shined, below are some standouts.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":409397,"_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-6a99c0451ec3a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ally led her team to victory by securing the lone goal of the game. Using her height, she had an amazing flick-on header over the goalie. This height and speed play highly in her favor. Stahl is a very physical player and a leader for this South Oldham squad. Her ability to turn and distribute, matched with her speed, makes her difficult to stop. Ally is a senior and proved she has what it takes to play at the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["111689"],"_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-6a99c0451ec79"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hartman is a dangerous threat immediately upon receiving the ball. Her pace and ability to take people on are what set her apart from most. This was demonstrated well against the Dragons with multiple shots on target. Her speed was complemented by her ability to isolate defenders and take them one-on-one to goal. Blair is another senior for this South Oldham squad who is college-ready.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":409401,"_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-6a99c0451ec9e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Although Gardner is one of the younger players on the team, her high level of play is that of a senior. Lydia is tall and physical, exactly what you'd want out of a player in the back line. Once matching this height and physicality with her ability to play up the field, she is a massive threat. Lydia did a great job of keeping the ball out of the defensive third and advancing up the field. With years to improve, Lydia is a promising player to keep an eye on.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":409404,"_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-6a99c0451ecbf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Finerty showed her skill set by keeping a clean sheet in their recent victory. Her natural ability to distribute is impeccable. This was shown by a shot on target from 40 yards out. She consistently gets the ball over half, whether it is a goal kick or a punt. Combined with her strikingly good foot skills makes Adelle hard to get past. With a year left to play after the season, her future potential is promising.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":409405,"_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-6a99c5f1bdd1f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Maggie is a player every coach would desire. Murphy's ability to turn with pressure and into space was impressive. Her arguably strongest attribute is her IQ. Not just connecting passes, but choosing the right pass to make is a skill not many players have. This passing vision is what sets Maggie apart from others who play her position. Being another senior on the team, Maggie is an exciting recruit for the 2027 collegiate season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
