Chloe Mann
G 5-9 Duncanville HS Duncanville TX
# 24 State of Texas Ranking

"Chloe Mann, a 4-star senior from Duncanville High School, is set to take on a leadership role and be the go-to player in crunch time for her team. With her ability to score in volume and make a significant impact on both ends of the court, Mann is a valuable asset to the team. Known for her scoring, raw talent and athleticism, Mann has consistently showcased her ability to put up points. Her scoring ability will be crucial in tight games, where her team will rely on her to come through in clutch situations.

Mann has been working on improving her passing ability and overall playmaking skills. This improvement will not only make her a more well-rounded player but also allow her to contribute to her team's success in multiple ways.

After being unable to participate in the playoffs last year due to external reasons, Duncanville is back and considered one of the favorites for the state championship. Mann's leadership and elite skills will be instrumental in their pursuit of another successful season."
