I feel so fortunate to be able to continue doing what I love at a college that already feels like home.

Playing basketball at Homestead has made me much more mentally and physically tough. My teammates have taught me so much over the years, and I’m extremely grateful for them all.

I’m excited to continue building the unbreakable bond our team created last year, along with having one last chance at winning a conference championship.
