Kayla Slovenec, a sophomore, has been playing basketball since she was in the third grade.
Recently, she and her Fox Chapel teammates traveled to Florida, where they won the consolation game in the KSA tournament. Slovenec scored 10 points in the consolation contest.
When the team returned to section play, Slovenec scored eight points, grabbed five rebounds and issued six assists to help lead the Foxes to a come-from-behind win over Penn Hills.
For her efforts, Slovenec has been named The Herald Spotlight Athlete.
Slovenec is also on the volleyball team and hopes to try out for track in the spring.
