Introducing...Kristi Cirone

Most people haven't heard much about Kristi Cirone. To which I say, where have you been? This young woman has been 'wow-ing' opponents and scouts for a while now. And believe me, her fans (Cironettes?) have enjoyed every minute of her successful career. Not mention she's also a two time consecutive Jackie Stiles MVC Player of the Year recipient. Oddly enough, many have compared her to that former SMS Lady Bear. Cirone brings a strong skillset with both the ability to score and distribute. She has also helped lead her Illinois State team, who gave Oklahoma a scare, into the spotlight,while also setting some records of her own. Bottom line, the girl is good and whoever drafts her will be lucky to have her. And if you don't believe me, believe ISU's Head Coach Robin Pingeton when she says “She’s a tremendous worker who has taken her game to another level.”
