Expert Analysis
Akiem Bailum | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Kelly is in her senior season with 5A Division 1 Ashley Ridge – a senior season that has also seen her take on a role as a team captain. Captains lead by example and Kelly did with eight points against another tough 5A Division 1 out in Ridge View. Kelly primarily plays at the three in the frontcourt and her skillset includes a willingness to draw contact and get to the free throw line. She is also a skilled rebounder – including on the offensive glass and those offensive boards can turn into two-point putbacks. Kelly is one of five seniors on this year’s Ashley Ridge team.

With the number of players the 2024-25 version of 5A Division 1 Ashley Ridge graduated, returning Kelly for her senior campaign is crucial in re-establishing the Swamp Foxes as state contenders. Kelly primarily is listed as a small forward, but can establish herself in an offensive set from the corner or the wing ala a shooting guard. If Kelly is playing in close proximity to the paint, she is likely doing so with her back to the basket. Kelly sported the Ashley Ridge uniform on 26 occasions last season and her scoring and rebounding where integral in the solid season the Swamp Foxes put together. Team Leath’s impressive roster from the weekend included Kelly.

When a team has top-tier talent spread out among classes, it is a sign of positive fortunes. That will be the case for Ashley Ridge as opposed to last season’s Swamp Foxes team which boasted a veteran core. Kelly shines as a transition playmaker and will display leadership by example, particularly on the defensive end. She will play effective defense out on the perimeter and bolsters a team’s rebounding efforts. Kelly also has no issues setting up to box out in case of an opposing player’s missed free throw. With names like Kelly sporting the Swamp Fox colors, Ashley Ridge will look different – but no less dangerous.
