His presence is sure to be known on the field, thanks to his excellent fast-paced play. He makes good choices that often lead to a scoring opportunity. Along with that, McLaughlin hustles for ball; I never once saw his head down or him trailing behind for a ground ball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Charlie Glover","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2028","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"142","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"Team 91 Upstate 2028","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-68502e1fb4389"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Glover made the varsity team as a freshman, something many cannot say, especially for the competitive program he is involved in. His skills have drastically improved from last year, with better communication and smarter shot choices. He was putting up good numbers for his team, as well as, being more vocal with his fellow teammates.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["125405"],"_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-6867b3bd4df94"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Canet is currently making waves in his class. He is a left-handed midfielder with off-the-wall ball placement. This kid can drill the top corner like nobody's business. He is good with both hands and has a great understanding of the game as a whole. He is quick on his feet, and with his strong decision-making skills, he is an overall well-rounded player. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["120074"],"_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-6867b3bd4dff3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Field awareness is a big part of the game, and Petriccione knows right where he belongs. His fake and finish is lethal, but what really stands out is his ability to connect with his teammates. Having 31 assists during the 2024 high school season and 25 individual goals, Petriccione takes advantage of any and all opportunities. Most importantly, he trusts his teammates, after all, there's no I in team. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["126883"],"_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-68682ae71c00f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Smith is a left-handed offensive player who likes his spot on the elbow. However, he can truly play at any location. He currently holds the freshman scoring record for Garden City. Despite his ability to fire one to the back of the net, Smith racks up assists as well. He showcased great qualities that I'm sure will take him far as an athlete and beyond. It is clear that Smith puts in the work outside of practice and has a passion for the sport, something that can't be taught. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
