Tatiana already has her path carved out, as she has verbal to The Ohio State University. Incredible guard who can do everything on the court for her team. Love her intensity and desire to be great. Can score in all three phases, she is strong with the ball and on the defensive end, she creates havoc. I expect a big summer from her as she heads into her senior season with a lot of momentum after a big travel season.

She made her decision to verbal to the Ohio State university, as she continues to watch her game and skillset grow every day. And play fast, push tempo and score in transition. Took on more responsibilities after injury to her very talented teammate, Mason showed why she earned the opportunity to be our Division 3 Player of the Year.

The Ohio State commit is ready to go for the Lady Arcs! Whether it’s inside or outside, Mason is able to make the defense pay with her 3-level scoring! The older Mason sister is dynamic with the ball in her hands as well as setting up her teammates for buckets. Tatiana is at the peak of her game and ready to make a strong post season push towards the state title!

Talk about explosive, talk about somebody who can score at any time. It’s definitely Mason. She just committed to The Ohio State University where I could see her having a great career. Tatiana displays the “it” factor that most people don’t have. Her court vision is uncanny and she has great athletic ability to out work a lot of people. Very good defender, she will add very nicely to this stacked Ohio lineup!

The recent Ohio State Buckeye commit isn’t afraid of any challenge! She loves to use her frame to score in the low post while also showing potential as a shooter from range! Mason is a rebounding beast who seeks opportunities to score off the offensive glass! Tatiana finished the game versus Mount Notre Dame with 13 rebounds and six assists going along with her six points. The #1 player at her position in her class is a force on both ends of the floor! The Buckeyes clearly have a huge difference maker that will impact winning in a big way at the next level!

The way Mason shows the ball while going to the bucket and moves it to the total opposite direction while maintaining body control is just a sight to watch!   She’s electric going to the hoop!  I know I’ve said it before, but she’s a freight train that I wouldn’t want to get in front of! And hot off the press, yesterday (Jan. 22), Tatiana verbally committed to Ohio State!

If I was forced to make a prediction on who I think is going to win the award, it’s Mason. Taking the two Spire Academy stars out of the equation (they are ineligible for the award as they are a non-sanctioned school),Tatiana is the top OHSAA player in Northeast Ohio, and she moved up to number two in the state rankings. Explosive, can score on anyone and putting up some massive numbers this year. This is my personal prediction. (Featured photo above)

The junior who can do it all! At 5’10”, she is a sniper from distance and can score with ease with her elite skills and footwork in the paint. Tatiana is completely capable of having the offense run through her elite overall game! Defensively, she works harder than anyone! The pressure she puts on the opponent forces pickups and makes it very difficult for them to score in the low post. She also attack the offensive glass very hard battling for putbacks on each play! Her best play of the game was when she got a transition steal and converted a layup through contact!

Her game has really taken on a life of its own! She is a phenomenal athlete, does so much to help her team and can explode for a big scoring night, any given day. Can knock shots down from the perimeter, or can explode to the rim. She jumps to #2 in the latest rankings as she has received several high-powered D1 looks. Featured photo above)

Tatiana is a scoring and rebounding machine in the interior. She uses her strong base and physicality to create initial contact in the post and soft touch to finish shots around the rim. She is also an elite pressure defender who closes out with high hands and stays active in gaps with her hands and feet. Tatiana moves her feet well and understands how to gain position for offensive rebounds and secure defensive boards. She uses her strong base defensively to create a wall against her opponents in the post and doesn’t let much get by her. Tatiana is looking to have a big junior year for the Lady Arcs as they rely on her presence on both ends to help lead this 2025-26 squad.
