This marks the third time she has been named to the All-State team and was also named to the All District 11 Team and Offensive Player of the Year for the North Piedmont Conference. She averaged 17 points, 3.5 assists and 3 steals for her Lake Norman team that finished 24-2. She will leave her legacy at LN as a former state champion and will be pursuing her college degree at the Naval Academy and compete on the women's basketball team. Sending you much success Kelsey!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1120320"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69c43e032a1d4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the top scorers in the state Janiyah can fill it up from everywhere and anywhere. She is a three-level scorer that does a lot of everything for her high school team. She scored 760 points this season as a sophomore; averaging 30 points a game. She also is solid on the defensive end snagging the ball four times a game. Boyd will be someone to look for on the national stage as she continues to mature. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["635063"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69c43e032a232"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jaidiah plays on a well-balanced Terry Sanford team. Her numbers are not overwhelming but if you watch her play you know exactly why she is one of the players named to the All-State team. She is crafty in her ball handling and shifty in her moves. Blake does an excellent job of making decisions and getting her teammates involved. Her leadership on the court is undeniable. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1809384"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69c48132aadf3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This is a kid who has put a ton of points on the scoreboard. Lilah has had one game where she scored over 50 points and three games where she has scored over 40 points. Obviously, scoring is not a problem for her! She was named to the All-State team because of her scoring prowess, but she also averaged double digits rebounding with 11 per contest. Only a junior so we will be keeping close tabs on her and her success.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["622016"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69c48132aaebf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Not only is Kira the girls Player of the Year in the Big East 2A/3A conference and led her team to a regular season title, but she also is voted Second Team All-State performer. She reached 1,000 points this season as a senior after averaging 20 points per game for Rocky Mount. She will leave the school with her fingerprints all over the women's basketball team on and off the court. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
