The family scoring record is hers.

Meadowdale High School senior Gia Powell, whose mom, dad, and aunt were all top-notch scorers on the hardwood while growing up in Coupeville, hit a big mark Tuesday.

Caleb and Terry (Perkins) Powell’s daughter, and Sarah (Powell) Lyngra’s niece, rattled home her 1,000th point while playing against Monroe.

The basketball whiz kid, who has signed to play D-I hoops for Brown University, is the lone senior on a Meadowdale squad which sits at 4-1 coming off an 83-56 dismantling of King’s Saturday.

Powell and Co.’s only loss came in the season opener to state powerhouse Lynden.

Gia, a three-ball droppin’ guard for the Mavericks, is heading into her senior season and now knows where she’ll play at the next level.

She’s committed to play basketball at Brown University, an Ivy League school in Rhode Island, which competes at the NCAA D-I level.

During her junior season at Meadowdale, Gia smashed school single-game records, raining down 41 points and nine treys in a district playoff win over Monroe.

She averaged 20 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 2.9 assists for the season.
