Bailey’s 4A Ridge View team may not have achieved the result it was looking for against a tough 5A Mauldin team in defense of its state championship. Bailey still put forth a noteworthy effort with 13 points. If Bailey has the ball from behind the 3-point line, she is very likely to take – and make – those 3-point attempts. Bailey provides a veteran presence for a Blazers team looking to take that next step following a deep postseason run in 2022-23. One way she displays her veteran instincts is understanding that the game is played on contact and is willing to draw contact to get to the free throw line. When talking about teams to look out for among the 4A ranks in 2023-24, one must not overlook Ridge View.

Bailey has worked hard to get her way from the Blazers junior varsity team up to the big squad. The team is moving down from Class 5A down to Class 4A for this season. Bailey displays a great deal of court vision and can make the right passes to her teammates. One element to her overall game is what she does from 3-point range and how she is a backcourt stalwart for Ridge View. Bailey is transitioning into veteran status with the Blazers and the experience she brings to the table ought to be a worthwhile benefit to the team in the next couple of seasons.

Bailey brings previous junior varsity experience to the Blazers before finding her way to the varsity squad coached by Terrence Gibson. Ridge View will drop down in class from 5A to 4A this upcoming season. A great bit of what Bailey does occurs from the backcourt and good bit of what she does as a scorer can come via 3-point territory. She also displays impressive court vision with an ability to make accurate passes and set her teammates up for successful possessions. Now as a seasoned veteran, her Blazers team can lean the experience she brings for the next couple of seasons.
