In the 2017-18 season, Trinasia Kennedy helped lead her school to the state championship. She was named MVP of the state Final Four, the Federation MVP, state Class B Player of the Year, and earned All-Section honors. Twice in her high school career, Kennedy won the Section 4 championship and was named All-Division. In 2017-18, she averaged 13.4 points and 7.0 rebounds per game.

Coach Giorgis on Kennedy: "Trinasia might be one of the most athletic kids we've ever had in our program. She's one of the fastest people I've seen, and probably the strongest person we'll ever have in the program. She can shoot the three, she can take it off the dribble, and she's another kid who's unselfish and a natural-born leader. She's a consummate leader and motivator. She's a tenacious on the ball defender and I think can cause problems to opponents' point guards. She has great upside, and just keeps getting better."
