Boynton left a very talented team in Sandy Creek, played with another (Starrs Mill) this June before a coaching change, and has finally settled at Fayette County for her sophomore season. She will join a very young team that according to MaxPreps did not win a game last season. Boynton was impressive with Starrs Mill during the Live Period at Lakepoint in June. She was even better at the PGH Georgia Sophomore ID camp. She is a talented slasher who other teams had a hard time defending. Yogi was poised on the ball and got to the rim a lot where she did a nice job finishing. Always under control, Yogi weaved her way in and out of traffic routinely before making the right play. She is a good shooter from the perimeter as well. Do not be surprised if she has Fayette County at .500 or better by the end of the season. I think she can have that big of an impact.

Yogi is a player who caught my eye after transferring to Starrs Mill in the offseason. She was very good for them in June when I watched them at GBCA Live and Wofford team camp. She uses her size and length very well slashing to the basket and finishing at the rim. She also showed on Saturday that she is more than capable of knocking down shots from the perimeter with makes from outside and inside the three point line. The most impressive aspect of Yogi’s game is her body control and patience when getting to the rack. She was able to go around and over defenders on the ground and in the air before finishing with both hands in the paint. I expect her to have a big sophomore year as she gives Starrs Mill another player to take attention away from Lindsey Kopachek. Boynton recently received an offer from Jackson State.

A few players stood out as the most fun to watch at The Shootout Nashville and Yogi Boynton was one of them in the 15U group. Boynton is a 3-point specialist sinking multiple triples throughout the day. She finishes through contact and gets to the charity stripe often. Her dominance doesn’t stop there, she’s also a disruptive and very active defender. The future is bright for Boynton!
