D2 Central District: Players Making a Statement- Part 2

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Kailyn Colegrove- 2026, North Union: </strong>She plays that baseline so well! Reliable hands, and positions herself perfectly for the open shot! Passes the ball very well!  Had a strong performance against Centennial with 10 points. <em>(Below with ball)</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":866050,"width":"277px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/03/IMG_1061.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-866050" style="width:277px;height:auto" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1120747' first='Kennedy' last='Harrah']- 2026, North Union: </strong> Kennedy, who uses her strength and power with kills in volleyball, shows that same aggressive play on the basketball court! I like how she moves without the ball and battles for boards! And she had a big game against Heath, scoring 22 points! <em>(Below on defense)</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":866049,"width":"275px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/03/IMG_1030.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-866049" style="width:275px;height:auto" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>    </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='659104' first='Ella' last='Hazelrigg']- 2025, Buckeye Valley:  </strong> Ella is a difficult assignment for opponents! Her 6'2 frame and athleticism is a problem because she does damage both in the paint and from outside! Can shoot the 3 ball, mid-range jumpers, and anywhere in the paint! Averaged 13.2ppg. and over 7 rebounds a game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='587816' first='Carlie' last='Osborne']- 2024, Buckeye Valley:</strong>  Osborne, who averaged 10 ppg. has outstanding court vision, and just knows how to set up her teammates for buckets! Her passes have zip! And she creates offense for herself and teammates with penetrating to the basket. Aggressive defender, strong on ball pressure! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Lexie Hecker- 2024, River Valley: </strong>Hecker does a great job of knowing when to speed up and attack the basket, and when to slow it down and set up the offense. Plays under control, nice range from outside! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Megan Clausing- 2026, River Valley: </strong>Megan has a motor that compliments her defense, picking pockets, and fast breaks! Clausing knows how to put the ball in the basket! Doesn't hesitate taking shots from deep. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Avery Murdock- 2024, Jonathan Alder: </strong> Murdock is the type of player that can do a lot in multiple positions. In picture below, this is the norm for Avery- battling for position of the ball, and taking off on transition! <em>(Below with ball)</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":866048,"width":"283px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/03/IMG_0095.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-866048" style="width:283px;height:auto" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Audrey Benedict- 2024, North Union: </strong>Benedict is a baller! She will come at you, draw the foul and capitalize from the charity stripe! Strong catch and finish inside, and is a threat from mid-range and beyond! She joined the 1000 point club, made first team All-Central District, and was named conference Player of the Year. <em>(Below, #2, Featured Photo) </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":866051,"width":"283px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/03/IMG_0997.jpg?w=981" alt="" class="wp-image-866051" style="width:283px;height:auto" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image -->
