The Ohio Crossover Athletics Best Offensive Player Award is given to a player who exemplifies excellence on the offensive end of the court. This player not only has the ability and confidence to take and make big shots for his team, but is willing to share the basketball and put his teammates in position to score. I am proud to announce that the winner of the 2018 8th Grade Boys (Miller) Best Offensive Player Award is Kyle Olson from Kings Junior High School!

 

Kyle is a very good perimeter player who can pull up from anywhere. His ability to shoot the ball can be a game changer. During a two game stretch this season, he scored 60 points and was 22-27 from the field! He also scored a career high 35 points against NWDB. Kyle has a very good understanding of the game and sees the court extremely well. He was a big part of our team's success this season. I'm excited to see Kyle continue to improve as a basketball player! Congratulations Kyle!
