Isabella Mia Henson '23 Recruiting Profile

My name is Isabella "Mia" Henson and I am part of the 2023 class of Monterey High School in Monterey, California. I aspire to play at the collegiate level because it is a once in a lifetime opportunity that could change my whole life. 

I play point guard and shooting guard for Monterey High School. Some accomplishments I am proud of most include making varsity as a freshman and being the only freshman to do so. During our season, I worked extremely hard and eventually made my way into a starting role on the team. We won Pacific Coast league that year, but we lost in the first round of the playoffs. It was a great experience for me as I was able to learn a lot about the game and increase my basketball IQ. 

I have strong ball handling skills and mental toughness that I believe can help any program be a winning one. I am a team leader and try to lead by example while also encouraging my teammates. I strive to be one of the hardest working players and one of the hardest working recruits you’ll find. I work hard year round on my basketball skills, even during the time I am playing softball for a travel team out of Salinas, CA. I stay physically fit by working out often and eating well.

In the classroom, I study hard and maintain a high GPA.  Due to a high GPA, I received an Academic Award of Excellence.  I want to attend a college where I can push myself in the classroom and on the basketball court. I hope to become a great role model to all my peers and make my parents proud
