Paige Baechle - Miss Basketball DII-AA

[ashjan]

Huge congrats to Paige Baechle of JPII for winning Miss Basketball this afternoon for DII-AA. She's deserving for what she's done on the court, but more so who she is off the court. A great all around player, she's a 31 on ACT, 4.25 GPA at JPII, and volunteers many hours for various organizations. In my 20 years being around girls basketball, she's the epitome of of being the best student/player/teammate/person combo I've been fortunate to be around. Congrats also to Taylor Reece of BA and Marie Carpenter of Ensworth fo being nominated.

Thanks Paige for reminding us why we coaches do what we do! Good luck to all the teams playing the next few weeks and the other Miss Basketball nominees.
