Is not just the top player in NKY but one of the top centers in the state overall. She is a multi-sport athlete, that held D1 offers for Basketball and Volleyball. She was just named the 2023 KVCA Ms. Kentucky Volleyball. Hunt averaged 13.2PPG, 9.3RPG along with several blocks leading Holy Cross (Covington) in all three categories. Her stellar play helped them win the “A” state tournament last season. Hunt is an elite shot-blocker, that scores well around the rim and rebounds at a high level. (D1 Volleyball Commit)
Had a great junior year for Ryle last season. She was the 2nd leading scorer with 14.3PPG and the teams leading rebounder with 8.3RPG. Eubank has tremendous athleticism and a quick second-jump that really gives her an advantage on the boards. She is also a very good finisher around the rim and mid-range jump shooter. What’s most impressive is her ability to guard positions 1-5 on defense. (D1 Commit)
Was a key contributor for Cooper, one of the top teams in the state. Last season the Jaguars went undefeated in district and region play but lost in the first round of the Sweet 16 state tournament. Friehofer can get a bucket in the paint and from the perimeter and makes smart decisions with the ball when she is on the floor. She will be expected to carry the scoring load this season.

The top center in her class and one of the top centers in the state. She averaged 17.6PPG along with 9RPG. Her size, length, and skill allows her to dominate on both ends of the floor. Green is a terrific post scorer, rim protector and rebounder that can easily take over a game. She raised her stock over the summer and picked up a ton of offers, I see a big junior season in the works for her. (Holds D1 offers)
Highlights
Scored her 1000th point and was a top 10 scorer in Kentucky last season with 24.8PPG. Eaglin is the definition of a “bucket getter” she is more than capable of going for 20+ points every time she steps on the court. What I like most about her game is her ability to draw fouls and capitalize at the free throw line. She shot an impressive 72.7% making 216 out of 297 of her attempts last season. Eaglin is a tenacious on-ball defender as well. (Holds D1 offers)
