/in /by

WARREN OH- In the realm of Champion Girls Basketball, senior Kayla Haynie stands out as a key player, showcasing her skills and leadership both on and off the court. As one of the vital trio of seniors for the Flashes, Haynie’s dynamic contributions have played a pivotal role in Champion’s resurgence this season.

Known for her remarkable three-point shooting ability and impressive range, Haynie brings a unique skill set to the team. Last season, Champion faced numerous challenges with injuries, hindering them from realizing their full potential. This year, with everyone back at 100%, Haynie has been instrumental in transforming the Flashes into the formidable team many expected.

Beyond her lockdown shooting, Haynie excels in various facets of the game, displaying prowess in ball handling, floor presence, vision, and defensive capabilities. Her versatility adds a layer of depth to the team’s performance.

Throughout her illustrious career at Champion, Haynie has maintained a scoring average of 7.2 points per game. Notably, she has connected on 73 three-pointers, boasting an impressive average of 1.4 threes per game across 51 games played. In the current season, her scoring has continued to shine, averaging 7.4 points per game in seven recorded games. Importantly, her three-point percentage has reached a career-high of 31%.

As she navigates her senior year, Haynie remains undecided on her college destination. However, her aspirations extend beyond the basketball court. Expressing an interest in exercise science and physical therapy, she contemplates the possibility of continuing her athletic journey by golfing at the collegiate level. Notably, Haynie’s influence extends beyond sports; she played a pivotal role in Champion now having a sufficient number of female golfers to form a team.

Outside of her athletic pursuits, Haynie is an active force within the community. From running the social media accounts for the Champion Student Section to volunteering across various community initiatives, she embodies the spirit of making Champion a better place. With her multifaceted talents and dedication, Kayla Haynie serves as a beacon for the Champion Girls Basketball team, contributing not only to their success on the court but also fostering positive change in the broader community.

HAYNIE HAS THE RIGHT SWING

/in /by

WARREN OH- Golf was one of the first fall sports to get rolling mid way through the month of August. While other sports are still in the early stages of their seasons, golfers are working on their strides to the post season. One golfer who has plenty of room to succeed is Champion’s Kayla Haynie. Haynie has been playing very well on the course this season. She puts in the work that earns that kind of success too. Haynie says there isn’t too much of her free time  that isn’t spent out on the links.  Golfers have to be good at self managing their practice, and Haynie has mastered the art of preparation. Kayla is coming off maybe her best week of the season where she was named a MVAC Athlete of the Week.  With sectionals quickly coming on the horizon, Haynie is hitting her best balls at the right time.

Kayla was kind enough to take the time and join us on YSN’s Running Point. She talks with Richie Juliano and Anthony Hartwig about her style of golf, her favorite courses to play, and much more. Don’t miss a minute of this Champion Golf Player Profile only on YSN!
