Kiki Rice, the No. 2 women’s basketball recruit in the Class of 2022, has been named the 2022 Naismith Girls’ High School Player of the Year.

Rice, a 5’11 Bethesda resident, has helped lead Sidwell Friends to an undefeated record and #1 ranking in the nation. Named for the inventor of the game, the Naismith award is considered among the highest—if not the highest—award in high school and college basketball. “My teammates and my coaches played a huge role in me getting this award,” Rice said in an article on the Sidwell Friends website. “It’s an individual award, but someone who isn’t on a great team and who isn’t being pushed every day is not going to win this award.”
