Makinley is an incoming freshman for Olivet to be excited about. She is going to make an immediate impact at the varsity level. Makinley already has length, athleticism, and a versatile skill for her age. She shot the ball confidently from beyond the arc and drained a smooth wing three off the catch. Makinley kept her hands active on the defensive end and took a steal the length of the court, pushing with her right and left to score the fast-break bucket. She scans the floor, dribbling with her eyes up in transition. Makinley made a great first impression at the Au Sable Shootout.
