Sutton said after becoming part of the Pioneers roster earlier this year, Miles made an immediate impact on training sessions with her tough and fearless nature attacking the hoop.
“Sophie is a really great person to coach, no fuss, takes on feedback and works on her game,” he said.
“She is a great example for all our local aspiring basketballers.”

Miles has a bright future and hopes to continue her rise when the Pioneers start the 2022 NBL1 South campaign in April.
