Nash has been awesome this season for an Oakland team that’s starting to look really dangerous at the right time. Nash had 12 points on only 6 field goals attempted in their win over Blackman. The sophomore PG is in command of the offense, and is becoming more and more confident as she continues to get big game experience under her belt.
Wisniewksi is a two-way glue kid that stars in her role for Oakland. While not a heralded scorer, she doesn’t need to be with this group. Her job is to defend, rebound, and knock down shots off the ball. The ’25 has been superb in job, and kids like Wisniewski give teams like Oakland a chance to make a special run.
Highlights
Beech is loaded with veteran talent that has been to multiple state tournaments, and they are putting together the foundation for another state run. Their schedule has been incredibly tough, and now they are on the other side of it ready to make a run. They won the regular season, and now Sisk (a 6’1 wing that can do a bit of everything) and her senior laden roster is ready to make a run.
Ford is another Beech senior ready for a run. She’s averaged 14 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 steals as she’s proven to be a diverse two-way player. Genesis Harris, Bailey Ford Bailey Ford 5’7″ | SF Beech | 2024 State TN , Carson Sisk Carson Sisk 6’0″ | SF Beech | 2024 State TN , Loryn O’Neal, Karbia Reveals….this squad is ready.
Gale has been tremendous all season long, and is playing her best basketball of the season. She scored 28 points in the district championship game over FRA 52-44. Gale had to outgun the two phenom ’28s for FRA Ella Johnson Ella Johnson 5’6″ | SG Franklin Road Academy | 2028 TN and Ava Zenner Ava Zenner 5’7″ | PG Franklin Road Academy | 2028 TN in this entertaining battle.
Cornersville turned in a 2 win week at the right time! Ady Gentry Ady Gentry 6’0″ | SF Cornersville | 2025 State TN averaged 14 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 steals, and is proving to be a next-level player for Cornersville.
Butler continues her impressive play for Upperman. Again on Saturday, Upperman beat Cumberland County in a game in which Taylor Dolente Taylor Dolente 5’10” | SG Upperman | 2026 State TN was held to only 8. Butler led with 10, Bella Mullins Bella Mullins 5’7″ | SG Upperman | 2024 State TN had 9, Sadie South had 9. Upperman is proving they defend as well as anyone, and can win big games when Dolente has been taken away.
