“I have never seen a more dynamic offensive-type player on the women’s side. She is just as fast with the ball at her feet as our fastest girl without a ball at her feet. Rylee has a great penchant for going and finding the game and being a part of each play.”
Eric Hill
Head Coach - head coach of Rockwood Summit High
