Lady Rattler Robinson Plays Both Cop And Robber On The Court

This season, the 2A Magazine Sr Lady Rattlers have not only been facing bigger schools but they are overthrowing those schools to boot. The Lady Rattlers are averaging around 46 points a game and sitting towards the top of their conference. One player though which fans are taking notice of is junior, Kylie Robinson. Kylie has been averaging 15 points and 6.7 rebounds per game along with shooting 75% from the free-throw line.

But all of that comes as no surprise to Robinson’s family and friends because Kylie was not only born into sports, it’s her life’s passion as well. “I’ve been playing basketball since I was in kindergarten,” Robinson exclaimed. “I have always been interested in sports because that’s what my dad did and my grandma used to coach at Magazine.” But this season there has been a different spark igniting Kylie’s basketball flame. “The best thing about this year as a Lady Rattler is the friendship I have between my teammates and my coach.”

“This year I have realized I am so much closer to graduating and how much I’m going to miss playing high school ball. Plus, it’s my coach’s (Randy Loyd) last year of coaching and all of my best friends are seniors this year so I wanted to push myself so that we can go as far into the season as possible. So far, my favorite game would have to be against Lavaca because we definitely played more as a team!” Magazine scooped up a huge 64-28 win against the Lady Arrows when they played them back on December 15.

After high school, Robinson plans to go to Tech and get her master’s in coaching. But with that goal being a little ways off, Kylie’s next big goal is focused on this Friday, January 8th. “Honestly I’m really ready to take on Mansfield because not only is that where my uncle coaches (Layton Robinson) and my boyfriend’s dad works but a dub against them would be an awesome fete!”
