Senior ♦ Basketball

Flynn became the 34th player in Michigan girls basketball history to reach 2,000 career points, doing so during the second quarter of her team’s Jan. 14 victory over Cheboygan. The Western Michigan signee entered the game with 1,980 points since joining the varsity as a freshman, and she scored 27 points during the first half and 33 for the game.

The 5-foot-9 point guard has made the Division 3 all-state first team after all of her first three seasons and has led Harbor Springs to a combined 66-13 record, including a 9-2 start this winter. In addition to becoming her school’s all-time leading scorer as a junior, she finished just a few rebounds and assists per game shy of averaging a triple-double. Flynn also runs track and was part of a 3,200 relay as a sophomore in 2023 that finished third at the MHSAA Lower Peninsula Division 4 Finals.
