On December 27th, 2025, Mason High School (MHS) senior pointguard Anna Habra scored the 1,000th point of her high school basketball career during a regular-season game against Springboro. The milestone was reached across four outstanding varsity seasons and reflects her dedication and hardwork throughout her high school career. 

Since her freshman season, Anna has been a consistent contributor and a remarkable leader for the Comets. While she also played four seasons of varsity soccer and has suffered from multiple injuries, Habra has remained focused and given her all to the MHS girls’ basketball program.  Outside of school, she plays Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) basketball at Legends U Basketball. On Nov 12, 2025, Anna officially signed her commitment to play Division I basketball at Eastern Michigan University.

Anna entered the Springboro game needing seven points to reach the milestone. She was aware she was close, but made a conscious effort not to let the number affect her during the game.

“I was not really thinking about it,” Anna said. “I just wanted to get it out of the way and focus on the game. When you are playing, you can’t really think about stuff like that. You just have to play.”

The basket that put her over 1,000 points came during the intense matchup between the Comets and the Panthers. While Anna was busy fighting the close score of 50-57, she almost did not recognize her accomplishment.

“I scored it, and then I was just back on defense,” Anna said. “It was not until I heard the crowd cheering that I realized I hit it.”

Anna’s name is now cemented into MHS history, as she joins an elite group of 13 Comet alumni who have scored 1,000 points or more. This group includes Mason girls’ basketball legends like all-time high scorer Michelle Munoz (MHS class of 2001), Kyla Oldacre (MHS class of 2022) and Madison Parrish (MHS class of 2025). While Anna’s legacy will live on long after she graduates this spring, she remains focused on the road ahead and finishing her senior season out strong. Her mother, Jennifer Habra, has seen Anna’s selfless approach to the game firsthand. Throughout the years, Jennifer has watched Anna grow into a player who values leadership just as much as her individual achievements.

“When Anna first started playing basketball, her goal was to get her team the lead and then help each of her teammates score a basket every game,” Jennifer said. “She determined that goal on her own at a very young age, and that non-selfish style of play has been her trademark throughout her basketball career.”

That mindset has remained consistent as Anna’s career expanded. From high school games to AAU games, Habra has made it a focus to be team-centered while playing. 

 “This achievement is not common in women’s high school basketball, and it’s even less common for a point guard,” Jennifer said. “A point guard’s main responsibility is executing the offense so teammates can score. Reaching this milestone shows that Anna is a very well-rounded player.”

Head coach for the MHS girls’ varsity basketball team, Gideon Dudgeon, has been coaching at MHS for eight years, with this season marking his second as head coach. Coach Dudgeon has worked closely with Anna throughout her high school career and has watched her grow into the leader and elite basketball player she is today.

“Anna has led by example through her work ethic, consistency and competitiveness in both practice and games,” Dudgeon said. “Her commitment sets the standard for teammates and helps establish accountability and confidence across the roster.”

As a scorer, Anna said that her confidence has developed gradually throughout her career, with one of the most significant moments coming during last season’s postseason.

“The district finals game last year was big for me,” Anna said. “That was the game where I scored my career high of 30 points. It showed my teammates, but more importantly, myself, that I was able to score when needed.”

On January 21, 2026, Anna broke her own record. In a 63-39 victory against the Fairfield Indians, she scored her new career high of 40 points, tying the all-time school record for the most points scored in a single game. Dudgeon emphasized the significance of Anna’s milestone, noting that it represents more than just scoring ability.

“Reaching 1,000 career points reflects years of dedication, discipline and consistency at a high level,” Dudgeon said. “It is a rare achievement that highlights both her individual talent and her sustained commitment to the team.”

Habra’s career has also had its fair share of setbacks. In the fall of 2024, she underwent a knee surgery that sidelined her from soccer and put her behind before starting her junior basketball season.

“Going into basketball season, I was definitely a little more timid than I should have been,” Anna said. “Being able to come back from that and prove that I could still play at a high level really helped my confidence last year, [as well as] this year.”

As the Comets push through the remainder of the season, Anna said the team is focused on competing for a Greater Miami Conference championship and a district title. Reaching 1,000 points marks a significant benchmark in Anna’s career, but she said it does not change her overall approach or priorities as a player.

“This milestone shows all the work I have put in over four years, but it also motivates me moving forward,” Anna said. “It gives me confidence going into the rest of this season and into college, knowing that I have earned everything up to this point.”
