Detroit Edison has had 4 straight Miss Basketball award winners and Alston could certainly be next in line. She may not put up the huge numbers like some of those before her, but her game is just as dangerous. I think Alston’s last turnover was in 3rd grade.

Alston has a chance to leave a huge mark on a team with such a huge legacy. She’s been one of the most efficient players in the state when it comes to ball handling and decision making. Alston very rarely turned the ball over. If her assist to turnover ratio is as high as it was last year during the state playoffs, DEPSA will be celebrating another title.

There are plenty of programs that would want to see Alston in Grand Rapids. She just received an offer from Detroit Mercy and it’s very easy to see why schools love her game. She’s an excellent ball handler that keeps her defenders at bay by protecting the ball. Alston’s quick first step and jab step are too tough for most defenders.
