Medina continues to be one of the steadiest point guards in Arizona. She controlled the pace, handled the basketball, and consistently made winning plays throughout the weekend. She may not always fill the stat sheet, but she is the type of floor general every coach wants leading their team.

Showed to be one of the top two way guards in Arizona. As one college coach in attendance said ” Dora plays like someone who has been through it all” She is composed and unphased by anything the opposing team does. She makes the right adjustments and plays. Does the dirty work. Takes charges, gets to the floor and plays with and through some tough physicality. Medina opened some eyes and got some attention from a few coaches in attendance.

Unpopular opinion: Medina might just be the top overall guard in the Southern Arizona 2027 class. She has elite vision, can change her pace/direction at a high level and just makes plays. Plays the game with a strong motor. Makes the hustle plays and takes charges. Defensively is one of the best in the state. Has shown the ability to guard some of the top “ranked” guards effectively. Strong leader and impacts winning at a high level.

Medina is arguably the top two way guard in the Southern Arizona 2027 class. Coaches looking for a lead guard who can operate an offense at a high level need to look at Medina. She can score at will. High percentage shooter from the perimeter but will get a good chunk of her production from attacking the paint. High level passer. Guards the length of the court and will force turnovers. Takes charges and is an all out hustle player. A vocal leader who sets the tone with her play. Will fill the stat sheet. Coaches can catch Dora Medina Dora Medina 5'6" | PG Sunnyside | 2027 State AZ playing with the Sunnyside Blue Devils as they face Skyview (CO) Friday June 19th at 10:30am on Court 12 in the SLAM Grafix Bracket.

Medina played a very solid all around floor game for her Tucson Swarm team. She ran the show and made sure that her teammates got quality looks at the basket. Her poise and leadership showed why she’s one of the top players in Southern Arizona.

As a fan of defensive playmakers watching Medina play is always exciting. She averaged 4.0 steals per game including a season high 12 against Gila Ridge. A relentless on ball defender who is a nightmare for opposing guards. Patient on the offensive end allowing plays to develop and making high level reads against the defense. Her 5.6 assist per game ranked fifth in the state. Medina thrived in physical games scoring the ball well through contact. One of the top facilitators in the state. Medina was selected as the 6A South Region Co-Defensive Player of the Year.

Medina continues to elevate her stock as one of the top two way guards in Southern Arizona. A tough and physical player. Great finisher through contact. Drives through the paint and makes great passes through traffic. Fearless, will take multiple charges a game and dive for the loose ball. She has developed a great all around game and will is a player Coaches will want to take a look at. Coaches can catch her this off-season with the Tucson Swarm 17U squad and at Section 7 in June with the Sunnyside Blue Devils.

Medina showed this past high school season she is one of the top two way guards in the state. She has great defensive skill and a strong ability to lead the offense. A very physical player who gets the job done. I’ve seen a lot of her game play on the court this season and shes impressive every time. To see her leadership and high level of play in a practice setting was great. She held her team accountable, was the example for how the drills needed to be done and led in all areas. Medina is a high impact player who will play at the next level. She will start getting attention this off-season going into her senior year.

Medina has been one of my favorite guards to watch play this season. She does everything on both sides of the ball you’d want from your lead guard. She is very vocal, a terrific defender, handles the ball well and has elite vision. Medina can get to the paint and scores effectively through contact. Medina finished as the Defensive Player of the Year in the 6A South region. She averaged 9.3 points, 5.6 assists, 5.1 rebounds and 4 steals per game while leading the Blue Devils to another 6A South Region Championship and 6A State quarterfinal finish where they lost to the eventual state champions by 1 point. I expect a strong off season that should see Medinas recruitment start to gain some traction.

Im always impressed when watching Medina play. She sees the game at an elite level on both sides of the ball. A true point guard who controls the pace of the game. A skilled dribbler who allows the play to develop and executes quickly and effectively  if she spots a weakness in the defense. Hustles in transition and came up with some huge blocks for the Sunnyside Blue Devils. I expect Medina to be a highly sought after guard in the 2027 class from Southern Arizona.
