Katie scored seven points but ripped down 10 rebounds and dished out 6 assists. A complete game for a complete freshman. Good future ahead of her.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='319294' first='Mari' last='Gerton'], 5-8 2025, Princeton</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Mari <em>(feature photo above) </em>dropped 28 points in a big win over Colerain with three from behind the arc. She also grabbed 6 rebounds and had 3 assists and 4 steals. With [player_tooltip player_id='157707' first='Sole' last='Williams'] out of the lineup, Mari was the key force in a victory for the Vikings.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Serena Baker, 6-0 2023, Kettering Fairmont</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A big fourth quarter sent Fairmont past Wayne in a battle between two of the better D1 teams in the SW region.
