Leyva set an early tone on defense with blocks and steals. From hounding on the ball and ripping the opposition, a helpside block and swatting an opponent who tried a mid-range pull up on her. When LCS started to pull away in the second half, it was Leyva who put her foot on the gas pedal. Attacked the basket with smooth but fast drives to the rim, either scoring or drawing fouls. Then had one particularly back breaking stretch where she stepped into a pull up three, then ripped the opposing ball handler for a steal and score. It was a complete performance for one of the top guards in the state. And she has Lincoln Christian looking ready to defend their 4A title.
