MIO — Mia McGregor, a senior at Mio High School, has made headlines with her commitment to High Point University, marking a significant milestone in her basketball career. Known for her exceptional skills on the court, McGregor has garnered attention from various college programs, ultimately choosing High Point over several other Division I offers.
McGregor's journey through high school basketball has been nothing short of remarkable. Over the past three years, she has established herself as one of Michigan’s most prolific scorers. With a career total of 2,678 points, she is on track to become the all-time leading scorer in Michigan girls' basketball history. Currently, she ranks third, trailing the record set by Jasmine Hines, who scored 3,034 points during her high school career.
Her impressive statistics include a record-breaking average of 42.6 points per game, which she achieved last season. This remarkable feat not only highlights her scoring ability but also underscores her dominance in the sport at the high school level. McGregor has already set state records for season points, scoring 1,071 points during her junior year alone. In her earlier years, she scored 866 points as a freshman and 741 points as a sophomore, demonstrating consistent improvement and dedication to her craft.
McGregor's commitment to High Point University is particularly noteworthy as the program has seen success in recent years, including back-to-back appearances in the NCAA Division I tournament. The team finished the 2025-26 season with a strong record of 27-6 overall and 13-3 in the Big South Conference, showcasing their competitive edge in collegiate basketball.
As McGregor prepares for her final high school season, she will lead a Mio team that has claimed three consecutive district titles at the Division 4 level. Her leadership and scoring prowess will be crucial as the team aims for further success in the upcoming season.
McGregor's commitment to High Point not only signifies her personal achievements but also brings recognition to Mio High School, which could soon boast both the girls' and boys' all-time scoring leaders in MHSAA history. Jay Smith, a former Mio player, holds the boys' record with 2,841 points, set in 1979. If McGregor surpasses Hines' record, it will be a historic moment for the school and its basketball program.
As she embarks on this new chapter at High Point University, McGregor remains focused on finishing her high school career strong, with aspirations of leaving a lasting legacy in Michigan high school basketball.
