Kentucky WBB embracing in-state talent; 3 Miss KY Basketball winners now on roster

Three of the last four Miss Kentucky Basketball winners will suit up for the home-state Wildcats this fall.

2020 winner Maddie Scherr (Ryle) will headline this season’s roster for Kentucky after a strong finish in 2022-23. 2022 winner Amiya Jenkins (Anderson County) should expect a larger role after showing flashes of potential as a freshman. And now, 2021 winner Brookylnn Miles (Franklin County) joins the party after transferring to the ‘Cats on Monday following a two-year stint at Tennessee.

That doesn’t even take into account the other two Bluegrass natives roaming the roster in fifth-year senior Emma King (Lincoln County) and sophomore Cassidy Rowe (Shelby Valley).
