I am in Nation Honors society. I also won the soaring eagle award at my school for being a well rounded good student, leader, player, and friend.

As the driving force behind LCA’s state championship run, Ava earned MVP honors for the 3A tournament, and rightfully so. She impacted the game on both ends, delivering in key moments and elevating her play when the stakes were highest.

With her length and versatility, she projects as a strong wing at the next level. At a smaller program, her size becomes a clear advantage, especially defensively, where she can contest perimeter shooters, disrupt passing lanes, and guard multiple positions. At a larger program she may not hold a height edge, but her ability to use her length, timing, and physicality to separate herself will be what defines her role. Her championship experience and two-way presence make her a valuable prospect in any system.
