As a pin, she does show the versatility to hit from both the left and right pin. She hits good shots across court from both sides that are effective and find the floor. My favorite highlights was the one where she had to set, for the first time in her life. After an injury she was forced into the role and besides some footwork, you wouldn't had known with the balls she was putting up for hitters! Great job, Riley!","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["231739"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Jones is a player I first saw last club season and her growth continues to be a fun one to watch. I remember last year beaming about her defensive play being ahead of the offense. Well, those days are gone and she is able to be a force when her team has the ball on their side of the net. Her President's Day highlights shows her court vision with the use of going thumb down to go hard cut.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["261114"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Sims is going to put the ball down more times than not.

Still, watching her poise and playmaking on video never gets old. The thing I notice more now watching her [program_tooltip program_id='428794' first='Power' last=''] League Day 1 video is her command of the back row. You can tell even on video she uses her voice and has no problem cutting in front of a player to make the play due to awareness and foot speed.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["227605"],"_player_evaluations_6_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"Triple Crown was good for Myers based on her February highlights.

Of course, it's a highlight video so you are going to see the best plays but I would be shocked if this wasn't the normal. Second, she's not going to give up on any plays and you can see her laying out on a few occasions to keep the ball up.
