She is also a great communicator and rebounder that makes people around her better. Maryan has a keen sense for making the right passes and decisions from her post position, and the ability to finish around the rim and rebound. She's going to provide an inside presence for us, which will be extremely valuable. I am extremely excited that we get to coach her."

Coach Adeduntan on Ella: "I am excited about bringing Ella Meabon to our program. She brings versatility for us at the guard position where she can play the guard and wing position, and honestly, if needed the forward spot as well. We love her mid-range game, her ability to get to the rim, and her ability to rebound. I love a lot of things that Ella already does but am most excited to build upon the toughness she's shown to bring on the defensive end. She has the ability to be disruptive, can keep people in front of her, and create chaos on that side of things."

Amarah Streiff
F/G | 5-10
Syracuse, N.Y. | Bishop Ludden

Before Colgate
This is Streiff's sixth varsity season at Bishop Ludden under head coach Carm Petera … Garnered New York Section III Player of the Year, Second Team All-State, OHSL Liberty Central Division First Team All-League, Section III First Team All-League, and Liberty League Player of the Year accolades during her six years at Bishop Ludden … Won the Liberty League sectional championship in 2019 … The two-year captain has also hit the 1,000-point career milestone for the Gaelic.

Coach Adeduntan on Amarah: "The thing that stands out the most about Amarah Streiff is her versatility. She can play so many positions really well. She has the ability to shoot from the outside, the midrange, and post up. She has a flair to her game and also rebounds extremely well. Her ability to be a threat at multiple positions will hopefully cause a matchup nightmare for opponents. That's the exciting part about versatility. What's even more exciting is Amarah's toughness, determination, and growth mindset. We couldn't be more excited to add her to our program."
