Makayla Noble has been dominant on the court no matter who she is going up against.  She can get inside driving hard to the hoop, and she can step outside the perimeter to knock down her shot.  With a strong ball handler graduating for Salisbury last year, Noble has done an excellent job taking the reins and leading her team to a stellar season so far.  She uses her wingspan well on defense knocking the ball away from her opponents.

The two-time state champion continue to be a steady presence on the floor. She is very little flash but plenty of substance. She is the player that will make the right play and will take the right shots. She has a nice mid range game and can consistently knock down the 15-17 footer. She plays defense and will rebound like a big. She does all the right things and coaches must find minutes for her as she is a highly efficient player. Makayla will carry the bulk of the Salisbury Lady Hornets offense this season as the team looks to capture a 3rd straight state title. I feel she is more than capable of handling the challenge.
