Cincinnati, OH---Sydney Neal, a guard from Mason High School, has signed her letter of intent and will suit up for the Lady Surge next season.
Neal helped the Mason Comets to one of the best seasons in the programs history as the team finished 22-2 with a 13-1 conference record, claiming its first ever GMC title. Neal and her teammates also made a run to the Div. I Region Finals while claiming both sectional and district titles. In her last game in a Mason uniform, Neal had her highest offensive output in the regional final scoring 19 points in 14 minutes. For the season, Neal averaged 5.1 points, 2.3 assists, 1.4 steals and shot 33% from beyond the arc.
"Cincinnati State is getting a tremendous player with a great deal of untapped potential," Mason Head Coach Rob Matula said. "Sydney has come a long way both personally and athletically and we can't wait to see her continue that trend over the next two years at Cincinnati State."
Neal will enter in to the Associate of Science program at Cincinnati State next fall. She joins a roster which includes incoming freshmen Emily Fite (North Adams HS/ Seaman, OH), Phylicia Johnson (Pickerington HS/ Columbus, OH), Basha Ramsey (Centerville HS/ Centerville, OH), Danielle Cheatum (Lloyd HS/ Erlanger, KY), Ball State University transfer Jonessa Moore (Mt. Healthy HS/ Cincinnati, OH) and Miami-Middletown transfer Chelsea Paddy (Hughes HS/ Cincinnati, OH).
