A bulldog guard who physically imposes her will on both ends of the court. Slasher, rebounder, finisher, three-point threat, Jayna can do it all. Coming off an All-Tournament First Team performance at Wayne State, followed by an offer from Wayne State, Jayna will be a huge deciding factor for Dream Loudly 16 U Paiz as they look to defend their Diamond Championship at GVSU tomorrow.

Jayna’s assertive downhill drives, physicality, rebounding, and all-around impact took over games at the PGH MI College Tour II. She drained a triple in the corner, climbed the ladder to deflect a pass on the perimeter for a steal, and crashed the glass to score an offensive rebound off two feet with her left. Jayna penetrated gaps from the perimeter, scoring layups and floaters with a soft touch inside. She threw passes on a rope to open teammates and helped Dream Loudly EYCL 16U Paiz win the Gold Championship. Jayna received recognition as All-Tournament First Team.

Jayna turned in another All-Conference campaign for Shelby during her sophomore campaign. She averaged an eye-popping 19.3 points, 13.8 rebounds, 3.3 steals, and 2.2 assists per game. Jayna has physical strength and toughness that you don’t see often at the guard position. She’s a bulldog on both ends of the court and a fierce rebounder. Her versatility as a slasher and perimeter scorer makes Jayna an extremely challenging matchup.

Jayna dropped 28 points with an eye-popping six triples during an early-season win against Whitehall. She’s a strong, physical guard who takes the ball fearlessly to the hoop and finishes through contact. Jayna competes with endless energy and is a relentless rebounder. She turned heads at the PGH Expo, was outstanding at Oakland Elite Camp, and is a top 15 prospect in this class.

Jayna is the type of player who instantly elevates any team she’s on. Her combination of athleticism, length, and strength allows her to impact the game in multiple ways on both ends of the floor. She attacks the rim with power, finishes through contact, and can step out to hit shots when defenders sag off. On the glass, she’s relentless—crashing for rebounds and creating extra possessions through sheer effort. What truly sets Jayna apart, though, is her motor. She consistently outworks and out-hustles her opponents, setting the tone for her team with her energy and competitiveness every time she steps on the court.

Jayna defended her high ranking at the PGH Michigan Expo with another standout day against top-shelf talent. Jayna penetrated gaps with her explosive drives and finished through contact at the rim. Her strong, robust build translates to the next level and makes her extremely difficult to stop from scoring layups or getting to the foul line. Jayna disrupted passing lanes with her active hands, pursued rebounds, and buried perimeter jumpers. She handles the ball confidently with both hands and finishes effectively off two feet. Jayna was a Top Performer and has been selected to the All-Showcase Second Team.

Jayna was an MVP at the Freshman Showcase, and she had another strong showing this year with Team 8 at the PGH Expo. Jayna’s high motor, solid physical build, and determination made her nearly unstoppable when driving to the basket. Jayna takes the ball to the rim like a running back accelerating through a gap, and she earned many trips to the free-throw line. Jayna drained a deep wing three, deflected passes with active hands, and converted shots from the charity stripe. She sprinted in to secure an offensive rebound and finished with a strong and-one off two feet. Jayna used a swift spin move to avoid a defender and finished another and-one off two feet. She earned recognition as a Top Performer.

Jayna’s physical strength, relentless motor, and total impact at Oakland Elite Camp were reminiscent of her All-Showcase MVP performance at the Freshman Showcase last year. Jayna was an offensive rebounding machine, muscling her way to the ball and finishing strong put-backs off two feet. She used a quick crossover to drive by for a bucket, sized up her defender off the catch, and blew by for another explosive layup. Jayna showed her outside range with a smooth three in the slot and separated herself at camp.

Jayna brought the same determination and tenacity attacking the basket she showed at the Freshman Showcase to the Michigan Dearborn prospect camp. She pushed the ball quickly coast to coast then crossed over a defender to score a layup off two. Jayna outworked defenders to score an offensive rebound put back off two feet and attacked hard downhill to score two more layups. Jayna scored another full-court layup and she was a force defenders did not want to step in front of on Sunday.

Jayna had an outstanding day at our Freshman Showcase, earning All-Showcase honors and Danyle’s selection for Most Valuable Prospect. Jayna aggressively attacks downhill off the dribble and finishes through contact at the rim. Her toughness and physical style will be fun to watch at Shelby this winter.
