Parting Thoughts

– When it comes to hard work, (drills/game time) you cannot find many players that “give it” 100% of the time like Tabitha Fudge, 2012 (Miller Grove HS/Lithonia, GA). Fudge’s energy and focus are traits to be envied by players that want to be great!

– Inside or outside, Brianna Cummings, 2014 (GAC/Lilburn, GA) comes to play and is truly focused. Cummings has the ability to play in the post and also has an affinity for the face up game. She is a young prospect that has big days ahead.

– Tiaria Griffin, 2012 (Lawrence Co. HS/Monticello, MS) showed that she william shakespeare research paper can shoot the ball under pressure, off the bounce and can feed the ball to the open player. Griffin has the potential to be a great asset at the next level.

– Mone’ Jones, 2015 (Carrington MS/Durham, NC) has the skills that will make her a threat from the post to the wing. Jones has the ability to create shots in the paint against stronger players, despite her thin frame because of her athleticism. Jones plays with passion and the desire to learn.
