What’s it like to have a point guard, center and power forward all in one player?
Ask Mainland Regional girls basketball coach Scott Betson, because that’s what he had in Kasey Bretones the last couple of years.
One of the best guards in the state, Bretones was an invaluable piece in the Mustangs’ run to their second state championship since 2019 this past winter. Bretones was unstoppable as a senior, scoring more than 500 points, adding 153 rebounds, 120 assists and 74 steals while leading Mainland to a 31-1 record and the Cape-Atlantic League, South Jersey Group 3 and overall Group 3 titles.
She was also one of the best defenders in the state, and routinely locked down high-scoring players on opposing teams. She finished her career with 957 points and nearly 200 rebounds.
