Meyer Siblings Aiming Higher in Hoops
The brother and sister tandem of Austin and Mariah Meyer are following in the athletic footsteps of their parents.
Austin Meyer is a 6-9 junior from Mustang and was the starting center on the Mustang High School basketball team this past season. The Broncos went 28-0 this season and seized the Oklahoma Class 6A basketball title.
Austin also plays basketball in the summer for Mokan Elite, a Nike EYBL team. He is, understandably, receiving lots of interest from multiple Division 1 (large school) collegiate programs.
Mariah Meyer is a 5-8 shooting guard for the Lady Tigers of East Central University. She just completed her freshman year.
After one season at Tuttle, Mariah’s family moved to Pflugerville, Texas, where she played three years at Hendrickson High School. She earned first-team all-district honors for two of those seasons, as well as academic all-state honors.
Their father, Patrick Meyer, played basketball at ECU as well as Murray State College. Mom Amber DeGiusti also played hoops at Murray State and she was part of the first women’s cross-country team at ECU. She helped them win the conference title.
