SIK Preseason Player to Watch: Emily O’Brien enters her senior season at Remington as one of the most decorated multi-sport athletes anywhere in Class 2Al. A long-time standout for the Broncos, she’s coming off a junior campaign where she averaged 14 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 3.6 assists while earning first team all-league honors, first team all-2A from Sports in Kansas, and a spot as a SIK 2A Player of the Year finalist. She’s also one of the elite hurdlers in Kansas, winning the 100H state title last spring and finishing runner-up in the 300H. Emily gives Remington a true two-way anchor, scoring inside, facilitating in transition, and defending multiple positions. Signed with Northeastern State University, she’s stepping into her final year with confidence and a clear mission. “I’m really excited for the upcoming season and the chance to improve my skills. My main goal is to contribute positively to the team’s success, and I’m ready to work hard and support my teammates in every way possible. I believe that with dedication and teamwork, we can achieve great things this season. Our goal this year is to win state.” Emily’s competitive drive runs deep, growing up in a basketball family where both parents and both siblings played in college, with her brother now playing professionally in Germany. She’s also spent years playing with Next Level, a summer program she’s been with since fourth grade and credits for connecting her with teammates who share the same passion and goals.
