Not only is Nnewihe skilled at multiple sports, she’s also one of the best teammates Ocean City High has produced in a long while.
She made a name for herself on the soccer field, and she could easily have skipped her senior year of basketball to train for her upcoming collegiate soccer career, but Naomi knew the Red Raiders needed her, especially with fellow senior Madelyn Adamson on the shelf with a torn ACL.
Nnewihe picked up the slack, leading the Raiders with more than 300 points and 200 rebounds in 28 games. She helped lead Ocean City to 14 wins, a second-place finish in the Cape-Atlantic League National Conference race and a berth in the sectional quarterfinals.
In soccer, she led OC to a conference title, 20 wins, a CAL championship and a berth in the sectional title game. She scored 86 career goals.
