Ariah is a nice multisport athlete for the Spartans, and she possesses good length, fluid athleticism, plus some skillful versatility. She’ll likely be a regular on JV this year for a once again loaded Homestead squad, but she could very well earn her way onto the Varsity roster and even into meaningful action early this season. She can handle it a little, especially in transition, she can shoot it a little outside, plus she can slice to the basket. Her soccer training has likely helped her with her quickness and ability to defend the ball much better.

Ariah had a fantastic performance for Lady Team Focus 15U in the Silver Championship Game. She showed her outside range, drilling a deep wing three and a triple in the slot. Ariah eluded pressure after securing a defensive rebound and knocked down a jumper from the block. She crashed the boards to secure offensive rebounds and kept her dribble alive. Ariah used a quick crossover to beat her defender off the bounce and finished with a smooth inside hand layup. Her pressure created many steals on the defensive end. She drove straight to the rim with a burst to earn free throws, then knocked them down. Ariah was an impact player at the PGH MI College Tour III.
