[player_tooltip player_id="32622" first="Macie" last="Taylor"], 5-7 2022, Troy- Taylor (featured photo) can do it all as she was the MVP of the game, she ended up with a double-double and made it look easy! She can create space by splitting the defense with her smooth moves. The way she can dish off the ball to any open teammate is amazing. She is such a fun player to watch, and she has so much talent all over the court.
Makenzee Maschino, 5-8 2022, Troy- Edison State commit came in clutch in the second half as she was all over the court getting steals, rebounds, and scoring off her teammate’s passes. She is a very long and athletic player, really fun to watch. She will make you work in the high post and down in the post. With her confidence, she is hard to stop!
Brynn Siler 5-11 2022, Troy- She was quite the first half but shined bright the second half as she had a few and-ones and a bunch of rebounds. She showed her talent and came through for her team as the game was close. When she gets to the line, it is hard for her to miss. Very solid player and fun to watch!
Serena Baker, 5-11 2023, Fairmont- A junior with tons of unspoken talent, she shined all game as she made her defenders work in the high post area. Very long and hard to stop as she brings out her dribble-drive to the basket. Always in the right spot at the right time, her pick and roll action is her specialty!
