Katie Leonard is a lethal shooter from around the arc as she moves well finding the openings and making sure she is tracking the ball to get the right pass. Speaking of the perimeter, she guards it well knowing when to jump in front of passing lanes or pick the pocket of her opponents. Back to the offensive side, she scores three the old fashioned way keeping her focus on scoring the bucket and not letting contact get in her way.

knew how to go to work at the top of the key. She drove to the basket well being able to get by hands in her way on the way to the rim. She is a knockdown shooter, too, being able to make her shot from deep throughout the game. She had a nice crossover step back move that she used to create some space for her shot.

Read EvaluationJ. E. Dawson | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
As the 2nd leading scorer for the Seaforth Lady Hawks last season, Katherine did a very solid job averaging over 10 ppg. She greatly improved on her freshman campaign that saw her help lead her team to the 2A State Championship Game in Chapel Hill in 2023. Katherine, who also doubles as a star on the soccer field, is very unique in that she can play a number of positions on the court. She can run PG duties, play off off the ball at the 2 or she can play on the wing. She has developed into a very good rebounder and can be seen rebounding the ball then taking it the length of the floor in transition. Just a very smart overall player who is sure to be even more productive next season.
