Junior Tessa Cole of the S-E Lady Marauders, Purple Tornado sophomore Margaret Dougher and Greene’s Drew Erickson – an eighth-grader – also saw their names on the list for the outstanding performances throughout the year.

Flynn, a four-year varsity player for head coach Josh Bennett and the Lady Purple Tornado, ended her final season as a Section IV Class B champion for the second straight year.

She also added a large presence on the defensive end of the floor, coming away with 4.3 steals per game.
