“For three or four years now, she’s been one of our most consistent players,” St. Benedict coach Mike Durbin told the St. Cloud Times. “There’s always something in her box score that jumps out at you. She’s always been a great rebounder. She never gives up on a ball. And she’s always been a very capable scorer as well. That’s an area she worked hard on this offseason and you can see those results.”
