Highlights of Career:
4/2011 - Featured in ESPN Hoop Gurlz as Class of 2013 Checklist from performance in Deep South Tournament:
Keena Samuels, Alana Beard's Future (Upper Marlboro, Md.): Samuels was one of the most impressive defenders in the tournament. She plays a lot bigger than her height would suggest and plays with a great deal of confidence on both ends of the floor. A very strong rebounder, she has a knack for knowing where the ball is coming off the rim. Samuels always seems to be around the action and she is involved in almost every 50-50 play in the game. Her tenacious and scrappy mentality is covered by her smooth play in the open court as she is a great facilitator at the point and an effective scorer on the wing. Her court vision is extraordinary as she sees openings that most people would be hesitant to thread a pass through and she has an explosive first step that makes her very difficult to guard one-on-one. She is creative in the lane and floats by defenders to make plays that seem effortless. Her decision making is improving as she gains an understanding for the game and that will make her a guard to keep an eye on this summer.
