About Malia

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

- Fast but under control - Aggressive - Makes great decision with the ball - Scorers mentality - Makes plays for others - Does whatever it takes to win

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I am very laid back when I am off the court, but when I get back on the court I am tenacious.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

I am a member of the National Society of High School Scholars (NSHSS).

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I was named captain during my freshman and sophomore year of varsity which showed my leadership. It taught me to step up in tough times and to not be scared of any challenge but to embrace it.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

One significant challenge I faced was the passing of my grandmother in January. She was my best friend and someone I could really count on. After all of this I still played and harder than ever. Following this, I sprained my ankle which caused me to be put into a walking boot for about three weeks to a month. None of this stopped me from being the best player I could be.

What type of college are you looking for?

I am looking for a type of college that has a great coach with a good coaching style and a school with a nice campus.

Light on her feet defensively. Excellent reaction time to jump in the passing lanes and keep the opponent on her toes. She did a great job picking off passes for steals to ignite the break. A one-woman show in transition; quick bee-line to the basket. Reliable 3-point shooter who can certainly splash it once she gets going.

Malia was able to showcase her crazy offensive abilities this past weekend, breaking down defenders, flashy passes and knocking down some tough shots. Every time she touched the ball it was just like highlight after highlight, she was truly a fun player to watch.

Malia is a quick striker on offense, capable of putting up points in rapid bursts that can completely shift the momentum of a game. Her ability to score back-to-back baskets with confidence and efficiency makes her a nightmare for defenses to contain. Throughout the tournament, there were several moments where she caught fire—knocking down shots, attacking the basket, and piling on points while defenders struggled to keep up. When Malia gets in rhythm, she’s nearly unstoppable, and her explosive scoring ability gives her team a major offensive spark whenever it’s needed.

Malia was scoring the ball in a hurry in the games I saw. She was one of the most consistent shooters from deep in Georgia at the Peach Games in a 4-0 showing for TSH. Her speed and athleticism allowed her to get downhill to the basket with nice handles and she was making some tough shots in big situations. The SisterHood had some great guard-play, and Malia was significant in their success.
