Miya Giles-Jones Miya Giles-Jones 6'1" | SF Terry Sanford | 2023 State NC | Terry Sanford | G | 2023
Stats against Fayetteville Christian: 20 points + 4 rebounds + 2 assists + 3 steals
Giles-Jones is the real deal. She’s built like a collegiate athlete already, and she can essentially do anything on the court. She crashes the boards grabbing offensive rebounds to get her some points. She can handle the ball bringing it up the court with speed, and she makes sure to find her open teammates. She had a nice steal taking it coast to coast for her own points. She doesn’t shy away from contact getting her points no matter what it takes.
Kyleigh Goode Kyleigh Goode 6'0" | PF Trinity Christian | 2025 NC | Seventy-First | PF | 2024
Stats against Trinity Christian: 19 points + 18 rebounds + 1 assist + 2 steals + 2 blocks
Goode (featured picture above) puts the power in power forward. She was dominant grabbing rebounds on both ends of the court, and she especially made her opponents pay getting some second chance opportunities. She used power dribbles to set herself up for points in a set offense. On defense, she had some nice volleyball spikes of a block showing her dominance in the paint.
Jamiya Ratliff | Richmond | SF | 2022
Stats against Cape Fear Christian: 16 points + 5 rebounds + 3 assists + 5 steals
Ratliff was all over the court knocking the ball away from her opponents on defense and grabbing steals. She can take the ball coast to coast herself scoring in transition, and she has a nice pull up jump shot she showed off, too. She battled through contact converting an old fashioned three point play inside, and she used power dribbles when close to the basket to get her defender off of her.
