Hurd performed at a high level when I saw her play in multiple events. She played within herself while also being a threat offensively. On defense, she played some of the best interior defense that I saw from any of the seniors in the state.

Karis is a very high intensity player that can change the course of a game with her effort and ability to extend plays by grabbing rebounds, getting deflections, and utilizing a very quick first step to get to the rim. As Karis expands her shooting range, she will be on a lot of college recruiter’s list.
