A Look At The Pikesville Panthers

The Pikesville Panthers were set to compete in 2A final four when Covid19 shut things down last season. Coach Dukes brought in some young talent from the 2024 class to go along with his experienced upper classmen. [player_tooltip player_id="136411" first="Kristin" last="Sterling"] Kris was my favorite to be this year's Player of the Year. A smooth yet rugged player that can step outside the three point line and knock down shots with ease, she can also bang inside with the best of them. At 5'11" she has the size to play inside where she can defend along the front line effectively. She is a deadly scorer and has made many big shots throughout her career.  She has signed with North Carolina A&amp;T. &nbsp; <strong>Amaya Frazier, 2022, Point Guard </strong> Amaya is coming off ACL surgery which caused her to miss last season and summer ball. She is a battle tested guard that has shown that she can run a team's offense and provide leadership on the floor. She excels in the open court and can make all the passes a point guard needs to make. She has a pass first mentality but can score when needed. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="136447" first="Dakota" last="Fisher"], 2021, Forward</strong> Dakota is a tough, 5’11" power forward that was hampered by injuries last season. She will be counted on heavily this season to carry the scoring and rebounding load. She has a nice shot out to 15 feet and is a good interior defender and rebounder. <strong>Cydney Barnes, 2021, Guard </strong> Cydney is the glue player every team needs. She was the team's Defensive Player of the Year last year as she took on the tough assignments every game and usually came out on top. She has a great motor and does a lot of the dirty work that sometimes goes unnoticed, like setting picks and coming up with loose balls. <strong>Amiya Moore</strong>, 2023, Guard Amiya had as strong freshman season. She earned more minutes as the season went along. She is a physically strong guard that penetrates well and finishes around the basket. She's a good defender and should have an increased role this season. <strong>Kelsey Parker, 2023, Guard</strong> Kelsey is looking to follow up on a nice freshman season. She's a solid guard with a nasty pull up jumper. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;
