Jaiden bounced back in a big way against Bishop Kenny this time and played with a ton of heart from start to finish. She shot the ball efficiently and knocked down several big three-pointers including shots from the corner and beyond. Her confidence never wavered and she delivered when her team needed her most. One of the biggest plays of the game came in transition when she finished a tough and-one to energize her team. It was also encouraging to see her build chemistry with the additional help in the backcourt. As those pieces continue to gel, this is a team that has the potential to be very dangerous during the upcoming season and Jaiden will be a major reason why.

Jaiden plays so hard and showcased her high motor at the Sophomore ID Camp.

I expect Bishop Moore to take that next step forward, and JP will play a massive role in that as the team leader in points, assists, and steals.
