Remington’s Emily O’Brien has established herself as one of the top
players in the area.
Following a tough season-ending loss to eventual state champions
Wichita Independent, the determined junior and her teammates have
been putting in nonstop effort to come back stronger.
With her skill, dedication, and relentless drive, O’Brien is ready to
lead Remington to new heights and make a serious push in the
upcoming season.
The Broncos wrapped up last season with a solid 14-9 record, fueled by
O’Brien’s impressive all-around performance.
As a sophomore, she averaged 12.2 points, 7.4 rebounds, 2.7 steals, and
1.8 assists per game, showcasing her versatility and impact on both ends
of the court. Her standout season earned her a spot on the first-team
all-league team, along with honorable mention recognition for all-state.
As an upperclassman, the junior is ready to continue being a leader.
“I always want to lead by example first, but I definitely want to be more
vocal this year,” O’Brien said. “This is my third year with coach, and I know
what he wants from all of us. Coach is our biggest fan, and he will always
tell us the truth about how we play.”
O’Brien has a handful of Division two schools that are recruiting her and
she plans to make a decision for her future as soon as this spring. But
first, the junior wants to win a state championship.
“We have a bunch of talent coming back and we’ve been putting in a lot
of work over the summer and this fall to get ready for the season,”
O’Brien said.
