Rome Free Academy’s Amya McLeod and Notre Dame’s Ella Trinkaus earned player of the year honors in Tri-Valley League girls basketball.

McLeod was named the Colonial Division player of the year. During the season, McLeod rose to second on the program’s all-time scoring list, finishing her high school career with 1,782 points. She finished 248 points behind all-time leader Nikki Jo Rotolo but missed out on almost an entire season worth of games because the 2020-21 season was drastically shortened due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

McLeod will be playing at Division I Youngstown State next season.

RFA was the division champion, going 6-0 in the Colonial Division and 12-0 against all league opponents.

Trinkaus is the Pioneer Division player of the year. The freshman scored 383 points to lead the team. Her 65 blocks and 64 steals also led the team. She had 186 rebounds and 52 assists.
