Los Osos High freshman Jackie Polk scores 15 of her 30 points in the fourth quarter to lead the Grizzlies to their first girls' basketball state title.
Grainy videos of a tiny girl with a toothy smile and frizzy hair can be found on her Instagram page as far back as 2018, Polk posting hashtags such as #ilovethisgame and #ballislife before she ever hit double-digits on her birth certificate.
She scored 30 points, tying the Division III state-title-game record, stepping back for threes off yo-yo dribbles and dropping in touch floaters.Yalee Schwartz had 21 points and 13 rebounds while Arielle Grossman contributed 18 points and 10 rebounds to lead the Firehawks to first state title.Advertisement
The only way Polk’s forthcoming performance could’ve been manifested, it seemed, was by some magic crystal ball. Yet in her mind’s eye, the freshman simply ran through her signature moves: those “snatchback” threes, as she put it, and teardrop floaters.
