Kate Thayer Soars onto Pro Court for Basketball Dreams!
Mar. 15—MINNEAPOLIS — Even though Northome/Kelliher girls basketball team's state tournament run was cut short, senior Kate Thayer was recognized for her efforts. Thayer was the lone representative of the Mustangs named to the Class A All-Tournament Team on Saturday.
During the quarterfinal against Central Minnesota Christian School, she scored 29 points and collected 12 steals in the 82-69 loss. It's another accolade in a season full of them for the star senior. Earlier in the season, she secured the state record for career steals.
She also became a part of the prestigious triple-quadruple club, when a player tallies 1,000+ in three statistical categories — one of only three current players in the state to do so. In her career, she's had over 1,000 steals, more than 3,000 points and over 1,000 career rebounds.
