Daniel Boone was missing one piece to their really good puzzle! That piece was Andrea Flores Andrea Flores 5'10" | SG Daniel Boone | 2026 State TN ! We all wanted to know what this team would look like with Flores. Now, we have a good idea!
Kyleigh Bacon Kyleigh Bacon 5'7" | SG Daniel Boone | 2024 State TN is a force to be reckoned with! The 5’11 athlete plays with a physicality that you don’t see much at the high school level anymore. Kyleigh’s overall game definitely translates to the next level. So, I’ll reiterate that Wingate is getting a great one!
Jayden Riddle Jayden Riddle 5'6" | PG Daniel Boone | 2024 State TN is a speedster! The senior guard is quick acting on both sides of the court. Riddle can be deadly when she drives and enters the paint area. You can’t leave this guard open either because she can drill the long ball. I don’t know who will land this guard at the next level, but she will be a good asset!
You may not have heard a lot about Ashlyn Seymore, but buckle up because you are going to be hearing her name more! The 5’11 junior post does all of the dirty work. Ashlyn sets the screens, alters shots, and impacts the game in ways that you will not see on the stat sheet column. Ashlyn also rebounds exceptionally well!
Opponents better know Lillie Walters’ number. Don’t leave Walters open because if you do, she is drilling the outside shot! Go ahead and add that same comment to Josie Jenkins’ scouting report too! The outside shooting combo that Daniel Boone has with Walters and Jenkins is a tough match up!
Now, the missing piece that led Daniel Boone in scoring as a freshman is back. Andrea Flores Andrea Flores 5'10" | SG Daniel Boone | 2026 State TN is one of the best players in our state! Flores has helped lead Daniel Boone to victory over David-Crockett, Science Hill, and Morristown West. Flores is consistent and a true 3 level scorer that is a threat anywhere on court.
Numerous players come off the bench and provide quality minutes! Remember, every piece to a puzzle matters! If this Daniel Boone team continues to play together and play their style of great defense, they will be a tough team for anyone to beat!
The puzzle is complete. The team that was really good, did get better! Keep your eyes on this team the rest of this season, and the years to come!
Pat Riley said it best, “When a gifted team dedicates itself to unselfish trust and combines instinct with boldness and effort, it’s ready to climb.”
