Ava had a very effective day for Team Prime Nation EYBL 15U at the Great Lakes Kickoff on Saturday. She caught a pass on the perimeter, used a quick rip move to beat her defender down the baseline, landed with a controlled jump stop, then stepped through to score with her left. Ava kept her balance in the paint and scored another step through with her left from a tough angle. She penetrated with a hard drive from high post to score a bucket off two feet, secured rebounds, and knocked down free throws at the line. Ava created steals, scored a strong and-one in transition, and made smart backdoor cuts.

Out of Eau Claire Memorial High School, McCarthy proved to be a do-it-all force for Team 5. Her athletic prowess stood out when crashing the glass, leading fast breaks, and defending across multiple positions. She switched seamlessly from guarding smaller guards to battling bigs in the paint. In transition, McCarthy elevated the tempo and brought constant energy, making her one of the most impactful players on the floor.
