As an 8th grader, Benally appeared in 31 games for Sandia (28-3) and was a vital piece for Coach Kettig. Kaiyah is fundamentally sound and affects the game in a variety of ways on both ends of the floor. With that being said, Kaiyah’s defensive intensity and competitiveness is what separates her from other prospects in her grade.
The 5’6″ PG averaged 7.1 points per game with 2.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.5 steals. The soon-to-be freshman shot 43 percent from the field overall with 17 3PM this past season (2023-24).
