Sophia will be in the conversation for an All-State position this season. She is a very good player and one of the best in the state. She moves extremely well and is a relentless worker. She is around the rim always keeping possessions alive. She has great lift on her shot and can shoot it from deep behind the three-point line. She uses her athleticism to attack the basket and her length to be a menace defensively.

She is currently averaging 14 points per game. Sophia can score in multiple ways because she can play all five positions on the floor. It just depends on what situation she is put in throughout the game. Headley has a high basketball IQ, she knows exactly when to cut in the lanes to score. One of her best attributes is how she reads her teammates. Throughout a game, you will see her feed her teammates. She would rather have more assists in a game than points. Sophia has a great shot as well from beyond the arch. When she is feeling hot, she will knock down multiple threes in a row from deep. Headley will at times play in the post as well, where she has great footwork to finish strong at the rim. Not only can she score with the ball, but she is Bowman’s top offensive rebounder and gets multiple points a game from second-chance points.

I was very impressed with Sophia. She is a tall, athletic player that can do it all. She can hit the deep three and drive hard to the basket. She has great bounce in her step, which gives her a nice first step on the offensive end. The most impressive part of her game is her vision and passing. She had multiple passes that were of a high degree of difficulty. She pitched the ball ahead in transition and was able to hit a post dive from the block for easy baskets.
