Young, feisty, and ready for success.
Following in the footsteps of older brother Alex Evans, Coupeville High School freshman Maddie Georges made an immediate impact for the Wolf hoops squad.
She was on the varsity roster and playing quality minutes from day one, became a full-time starter by midseason, and helped CHS go 12-7.
Along the way, Georges rattled the rims for 86 points, not bad for a pass-first point guard primed to inherit the mantle of floor leadership from the graduating Scout Smith.
But how does that point total compare to previous Wolf freshmen?
Pretty, pretty, pretty good, as it’s the seventh-most by a CHS frosh girl since the modern-day program kicked off back in 1974.
There have been 229 players who have scored a varsity point in the last four-and-a-half decades, with the only ones to top Georges during their own freshmen seasons going on to be four-year stars for the program.
Here’s how Mad Dog compares with the best young female hoops stars the Wolves have produced, with their freshman and career totals:
Brianne King — 275 in 1999-2000 — 1549 career (#1 all-time)
Zenovia Barron — 242 in 1994-1995 — 1270 career (#2)
Ashley Ellsworth-Bagby — 163 in 1998-1999 — 892 career (#6)
Megan Smith — 161 in 2006-2007 — 1042 career (#4)
Makana Stone — 116 in 2012-2013 — 1158 career (#3)
Cassidi Rosenkrance — 88 in 2008-2009 — 423 career (#23)
Maddie Georges — 86 in 2019-2020 — ? career (#?)
