Game ball goes to Aaliyah! Freshman who led the team in scoring against KMC, but more importantly, led in impact in crucial moments of the game that turned the tide in favor of her Falcons. Her on-ball defense was suffocating, and her full-court pressure picked up as the game waned. She was constantly in the passing lanes and reaching in for steals, never giving up on broken plays. In fact, her biggest moments in this game were on broken plays and loose balls. She plays with really good energy, and it’s infectious throughout her team. For as good a defender as she is and with really good arm length, none of it seems to take away from her effectiveness as a shooter, either.
