Kyrah is the only player listed in the top 10 of every statistical category in the area leaderboard. In six games against ranked opponents, Kyrah was at her best, averaging 16.8 points, 8.7 rebounds, 5.2 steals, 4.7 assists, and 5.3 blocks per game. She shot an efficient 46.7% from three and 74% from the free throw line. Kyrah surpassed 1,500 career points and will graduate in the top 10 of the MHSAA record book for career steals. As a junior, Kyrah had the 7th most steals in MHSAA history. She’s been a phenom for Evart again as a senior, averaging 17.9 points (80% FT%, 39% 3PT%, 51% FG%), 9.2 rebounds, 6.2 steals, 3.7 assists, and 2.1 blocks per game (16 games). Kyrah led the team in every statistical category other than made threes and is a 2x Free Press All-State and 2x BCAM Best selection. At Northwood Team Camp in the summer, a local head coach said Kyrah was the best player in the region, without a doubt. For a team not traditionally known as a state contender or basketball school, Kyrah has put them on the map. Evart has been a giant slayer this postseason. After losing to McBain and Beaverton during the regular season, they completely flipped the script, knocking out undefeated #3 McBain 45-37 in the District 70 Finals and #10 Beaverton 50-36 in the Regional 18 Semifinal. Kyrah will continue her softball career at Ferris State following graduation and is leading Evart on a magical run in her final campaign.

Kyrah, a senior guard for Evart and a Ferris State softball commit, delivered a standout performance to help lead her team to a district championship upset over McBain. She filled up the stat sheet with 22 points and five blocks, impacting the game on both ends of the floor. Kyrah knocked down shots from beyond the arc while also attacking the basket and finishing strong at the rim. Her all-around effort and ability to make plays in key moments helped fuel Evart’s victory and secure the district title.

Kyrah was a force on both ends of the floor last season, earning First Team All-State honors after putting together an impressive all-around campaign. The 5-foot-9 standout averaged 18.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 7.5 steals, and 1.9 blocks per game, while shooting an efficient 47 percent from the field and 75 percent from the free throw line. Her relentless defensive energy and ability to fill up the stat sheet made her one of the most dynamic players in the state. Named the Cadillac Area Player of the Year, Kyrah led Evart to a Highland Conference championship and an outstanding 22-3 record. With her senior season ahead, she’s poised to take her game to an even higher level and once again be one of Division 3’s most impactful players.

Kyrah is a talented multi-sport athlete who is committed to Ferris State for softball–that doesn’t take anything away from how great she was on the basketball court for Evart this season. Kyrah averaged 19 points per game, helped the team win their first title since 1986, and surpassed 1,000 career points in January. She’s a high-motor player who aggressively pursues rebounds and drives to the basket.

Kyrah is a lengthy guard who makes an impact on both sides of the ball. She has a smooth, balanced shot from 3-point distance, anticipates passes to cause turnovers on defense, and drives hard through defenders to score at the rim. Kyrah is a prospect I look forward to watching more this winter for the Wildcats.
