Kaila Richards Kaila Richards 5'7" | PG Hotchkiss | 2025 State New E (2025) | 5’7 PG | Hotchkiss

Richards is a dynamic 2-way player that is a headache for opponents. A thorough playmaker that makes the players around her better. She also elevates the level of play when she is on the floor. Kaila has a plethora of moves and on the defensive side of the ball, she is a shutdown defender that usually picks up opposing teams’ best perimeter player. The senior guard is a fantastic fit with Hotchkiss.

Richards is a dynamic player that can leave a massive impression on the game with stellar scoring outputs and lock down defense. A true 2-way player that gets points from athletic takes to the rim that include blazing spin moves in transition, tricky hop-steps, up & unders and a solid pull up midrange jump shot. She gets to her spots with ease. Rarely does Richards get caught up with pesky defenders. She uses her sharp handle to ward off opponents and aggressively attacks defender’s feet. Kaila is a shrewd defender herself that can work solo disrupting ballhandlers or within the defensive scheme. She seems to embrace the tall tasks of guarding some of the most talented players on the opposing team. Richards stops the ball at the point of attack and coupled with her natural athleticism, it makes her one of the best defenders at the top of the class. Hotchkiss has one of the best 2-way players at the position in a lead role this season.
