I was trying to avoid including seniors here, but I had to include Rowe because she might be the highest IQ player I’ve gotten the chance to watch for the entirety of her high school career. She just has a special feel for the game that you can’t teach. She makes such smart plays and can thread the needle perfectly to get her teammates open looks, but it goes far beyond her talent when you’re talking about what makes her game impressive. She is a true coach on the floor and she cares more about getting her teammates going than she does about her own accolades. Rowe has been truly spectacular in her career at Pikeville and it’ll be exciting to see what she does at the next level.

Trinity finishes her high school career where she spent most of it, which is on top of the 2024 rankings. A true floor general, Rowe can score or create offense for others. She’s one of the winningest players in the class in Kentucky.

Trinity has been a top prospect in this class since we started ranking it and nothing has changed at this point. Rowe is the front runner for Miss Basketball and has Pikeville on the short list of teams that can compete for a state title this season.

The argument can be made that Trinity has been the best player in the mountains since she started playing varsity.  She’s definitely been among the most valuable. Able to score or create for others, Rowe is the early favorite for 2024 Miss Basketball.

Basketball IQ was unmatched. Threw quick, zippy passes to create for teammates, including impressive no looks. Handles are tough and allow her to handle any pressure that’s thrown her way. As smart as they come and really the definition of a floor general, but also has the ability to score at all 3 levels. Really reliable outside shooter as well.

5 things she brings to the court: Leadership (especially vocal), an elite basketball IQ, playmaking, crafty passing, and high percentage shooting.

22-23 State Leaderboards: Top 3-Point Field Goals Leaders (3.4 per game) – 4^th in KY

There are plenty of talented players in the 15th Region that could easily be included on here, but from everything I’ve heard, it would be shocking if Rowe wasn’t the 15th Region Miss KY Basketball candidate next season. She is the definition of a true PG. It would be hard to find a player that has a higher basketball IQ or is more of a coach on the floor than she is, and she can also really put the ball in the basket. Extremely efficient.

2022-23 Season Stats: 16.2 PPG, 2.5 RPG, 51.4% FG (overall), 50% 3pt FG, 77.1% FT

Two of the other potential candidates from the 15th Region are actually Rowe’s current teammates: Kyera Thornsbury Kyera Thornsbury 5'7" | SG Pikeville | 2024 State KY (Jacksonville WBB Commit; 10.2 PPG, 3.3 RPG, 47.4% FG (overall), 42.9% 3pt FG, 79.3% FT) & Emilea Preece Emilea Preece 6'1" | C Paintsville | 2024 State KY (ETA Thunder – AAU; 16.1 PPG, 8.7 RPG, 38.2% FG (overall), 32.1% 3pt FG, 69% FT). Another potential candidate from the 15th Region is Martin County’s tough point guard, Laken Williams Laken Williams 5'4" | PG Marion County | 2024 State KY (21.2 PPG, 4.6 RPG, 40.1% FG (overall), 29.3% 3pt FG, 66.5% FT).

Rowe is the kind of point guard that every coach would love to have on their team. She is the definition of a leader and you can constantly hear her coaching up her teammates on the floor. However, she also has a lot of talent to go along with that leadership. Rowe has a very high basketball IQ and excellent court vision. She can deliver passes seamlessly through traffic and she has great ball handling skills. Simply put, Rowe is a competitor who does whatever it takes to help her team win. She averaged 16.2 PPG and 2.5 RPG while shooting 51.4% overall and a whopping 50% from 3 (113/226) this season.
