As a first team all-league selection last season, Andover’s Aliyah Green was one of the most prolific scorers in the AVCTL.
Now heading into her senior season, Green hopes to expand her offensive game.
“This year I really want to work on improving my jump shot,” Green said. “I worked on it over the summer and really started to utilize it at the end of our summer season. I tried to get in the gym five times a week to do something with a jump shot over the summer.”
Not only was Green in the gym for individual workouts, but she also played games all summer.
“During the offseason I have been doing a lot,” Green said. “I played AAU for my last summer so we have practice and training 3 times a week. We also traveled almost every weekend and for two weeks straight in July playing in the Select 40 circuit. On top of that I did strength and agility training to stay in shape. We went to a few team camps over the summer as well.”
The Trojans were just a few points away from a state title last season and that has stuck with Green.
“My goal this season is to leave it all on the floor,” Green said. “Last year we went to state and were four points away from the championship game and I don’t want to feel like that going out my senior year.”
