Having reached the midway point of the high school girls basketball season, PennLive has listed which Mid-Penn Conference standouts would be its starting 5 if the season ended today.
Olivia Jones
School: Cedar Cliff
Class: Freshman
Height: 5-10
Position: Guard
Bio: You don’t manage to snap off 14 straight victories to open a season without sound leadership and experience. Coach Scott Weyant has it, but Jones has stepped right into the starting 5 and offered that something extra. The freshman has provided points (13.9 ppg.) when needed and provided pressure up and down court. Jones is near the top of the conference in rebounding with 125 and dished our 53 assists during that clean run. Showing even more versatility, Jones has 42 steals.
