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.
