The 5-foot-10 senior guard had led the Wolves to a 27-4 record and a berth in the Class A Private School state tournament championship game at the time of her selection. Coombs averaged 16.8 points, 6.9 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 4.4 steals through 31 games. The 2016 Class 2A Player of the Year, Coombs is a McDonald's All-American Game honoree and a three-time member of the Gwinnett Daily Post's Super Six team. She entered the state final with 1,314 points in her prep basketball career.
Coombs has maintained a weighted A-minus average in the classroom. She has signed a national letter of intent to play basketball on scholarship at the University of Connecticut beginning this fall.
A designated school ambassador, Coombs has also volunteered locally with Students Adventuring Life Without Substance Abuse (SALSA). "Mikayla is the total package," said Nichole Dixon, head coach of Holy Innocents Episcopal School. "Players of her caliber don't always have the maturity to still be the best player on the court while being a great teammate. Mikayla elevates the level of her team."
