Her long frame certainly makes things easier for her on the right, but Morris has adjusted nicely to the new position, developing a strong offense and becoming one of the team's go-to scoring options. Morris hits a really heavy ball and makes contact with it at a very high pointy, making it hard for blockers to stop her. She also maintains the same blocking efficiency of when she played in the middle and is a challenge for opposing pin hitters.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://sportsrecruits.com/athlete/taryn_morris?video=2587559u0022u003eHighlightsu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64066ace59fbf"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["212729"],"_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_0_evaluation":"Barr can efficiently play at either pin, but has been more frequently used on the right by her [program_tooltip program_id='431200' first='Madfrog' last=''] 16 N Green team that will compete in the 16 Open division. Her tremendous offensive power makes of her a great fit for the position as Barr can consistently swing with power and put the ball down.

Sims is a strong offensive player, who's very efficient when hitting out-of-system sets and has become more and consistent and intelligent with her shot selection.
