2017 All-Colorado girls basketball team

Michaela Onyenwere, Grandview

Sr., G, 5-11; 20.8 points per game, 8.9 rebounds, 3.4 steals

Onyenwere again was the most talented player in the state, by a large margin. She will take her talents to UCLA,  where she is expected to immediately vie for playing time.

Leilah Vigil, Grandview

Jr., F, 5-10; 13.8 points, 8.6 rebounds

After transferring from , Vigil slid seamlessly into the Wolves’ starting rotation and provided a complementary scoring threat alongside Onyenwere.

Tatum Rembao, Loveland

Sr., G, 5-8; 24.2 points, 6.7 rebounds

The Creighton University commit led Class 5A in scoring this season and goes down as the best player to ever don a Loveland uniform.

Camilla Emsbo, Lakewood

Jr., C, 6-4; 18.9 points, 8.7 rebounds

No longer just a tall girl with potential, Embso had a breakout campaign that saw her emerge as a dominant player on both ends of the floor, leading the Tigers to their first title game.

Fran Belibi, Regis Jesuit Soph

So., F, 6-1; 15.7 points, 11.6 rebounds, 3.2 blocks

She made national news in January when she became the first girl to dunk in a Colorado high school basketball game, but the way she carried the Raiders to the Final Four put the state on notice she’s just getting started.

Coach Josh Ulitzky, Grandview

Ulitizky had the most loaded lineup in the state, but the 12th-year Wolves coach continually put the right pieces in place as Grandview cruised through the Class 5A tournament and to the program’s first state title.
