Double-Double Mania: Kansas December Leaders

Several athletes in Kansas recorded a December to remember.   My favorite holiday double-double is Lasagna chased by Chocolate Pecan Pie.   These Kansas athletes led the state in double-double games before the holiday break.   This is not an all-inclusive list, as some teams do not post public stats, and the cutoff total to be included was three double-digit games.   Sabra Bergh, 5'5”, SG, Hyman Brand Hebrew Academy, '27   Bergh has recorded five double-doubles in five games played. She is averaging 15.4 points per game and 10.2 steals per contest. She is one of the athletes recording doubles-doubles via the steal and points scored. She has also been cleaning the glass for the Rams, grabbing 6.2 rebounds per game. Bergh is shooting an impressive 71 percent from the field in five contests. Bergh is currently unranked by Prep Girls Hoops.   [player_tooltip player_id='621241' first='Paityn' last='Fritz'], 6'2”, C, Salina South, ‘26   Fritz is tied for the unofficial lead in double-doubles with five in six games played for the Cougars. She is recording her double-doubles the old-fashioned way with points and rebounds. She is averaging 17.2 points and 9.8 rebounds in five games. She is doing some serious damage early at the free-throw line. She has converted 37-of-56 free throw attempts. She is on pace to set career highs in both made free throws (66) and free throw attempts (108), which both came in her sophomore season. Fritz is ranked No. 12 overall in the Kansas Class of 2026.   [player_tooltip player_id='898215' first='Brynlee' last='Koontz'], 5'10”, CG, Jefferson West, ‘29   Koontz is posting some crazy numbers to start her high school career. The freshman has recorded four double-double games in four games played. She is scoring at a pace of 26.5 points per game, and is grabbing 9.3 rebounds and 9.5 steals per game. If teams don't find a way to slow her down, she is a threat to average a triple-double in those three categories.   [player_tooltip player_id='827725' first='Kayte' last='Shively'], 5'10”, PF/C, Rawlins County, ‘26   Shively is another senior off to a hot start in her final season. She averaged a double-double as a junior, scoring 14.8 points and 11.8 rebounds in 22 games played. She is on pace to surpass both of those totals as she is scoring 17 points and 13.6 rebounds for the Buffaloes. Shively is currently shooting 41 percent from the field. She is ranked No. 144 overall by Prep Girls Hoops Kansas.
