  • Akpan, a 6-foot-3 post, hasn't missed a game, or a beat, since her dominant run last March, which put her on the map locally and kicked off what has developed into a national recruiting process, as more than 20 Division I schools have shown interest.

The article from OregonLive discusses the emergence of Mayenabasi Akpan, a sophomore from South Medford High School, as a standout player during the 2024 Oregon state basketball tournament. Akpan, who has been playing basketball for just over a year, has quickly risen to prominence with her impressive performances, including a 20-point game in the semifinals. Her athleticism, skill, and rapid development have caught the attention of college scouts, with offers already coming in from schools like Oregon State and Portland. Despite her newness to the sport, Akpan's dedication and natural talent have made her a key player for her team, which is aiming for its first state title since 2000. Her story is one of a late bloomer making a significant impact, proving that with hard work and the right support, one can excel in sports even with a late start.
