Myah Selland is setting the bar … and it’s incredibly high.
As a junior, the six-foot-two forward is about to play in her fourth State “B” Tournament, following a blue-chip season where she averaged 22 and a half points and 7.6 rebounds per game. Added to those regular season stats are 3.5 steals, 3.9 assists and 2.4 blocks per game.
In the Blackhawks’ three postseason games, Selland has improved on her per game average with a total of 97 points and 29 rebounds. She’s averaging 32.3 points per game in the postseason and 23.74 overall.
Heading into tournament play, Selland has a total of 546 points on the season, including 10 points-rebounds double-doubles.
Selland regularly puts up big numbers, but her coaches say she sometimes has to be encouraged to shoot it more. She is described by her coaches as very unselfish and loves to get her teammates, and her best friends, into the game. She makes her teammates better, they say.
Unsurprisingly, Selland has been garnering the attention of several Division 1 scouts, including both SDSU and USD, but has yet to make any decisions and is taking the time necessary to consider her options.
With another state tournament and a whole senior season to go, she has some time to think about it, and add to her already extraordinary career stats.
