Kaleigh was as smooth and polished as any player I saw this season. A little bit of style here and there mixed in with a whole lot of substance. She does not lack ability in any facet of the game and plays with a very high IQ. Her decision making elevates her above most of the guards in the state in her class. Kaleigh could try and go score every trip down the court on offense, probably more times successfully than not. She is that talented and gifted with the ball in her hands. However,she is very unselfish and just as talented a passer as she is a scorer. She did an outstanding job bringing up the play of her teammates and leading them by example. Heywood dealt with all of the extra defensive attention great players do by using her vision to find open teammates and set them up for success. When it was time to get a bucket, everyone in the gym knew she was getting the ball and time and time again she delivered in big moments when her team needed her most. I would not be shocked at all if after a solid freshman season at Alabama State, Heywood is hot commodity in the transfer portal amongst Power Five coaches.
