How have you improved since your freshman season?
"I think that Heather has given me a lot of confidence I could not have had without her. Playing basketball with confidence is so much more fun. Heather really told me how could I was and made me believe it. All of the confidence she has given me is showing on the court this year."

What does the team need to do to get the momentum heading into the playoffs?
