6-1 Forward - Villanova 

Big East Honorable Mention selection (2008); Transferred to Villanova after two years at Duke.
 
Career Averages: 8.6 ppg, 3.7 rpg, 51.3% FG, 44.5% 3FG, 75% FT
Senior Season: 18.1 ppg, 7.4 rpg, 46.7% FG, 31.2% 3FG, 80% FT

WNBA Comparison: Kristen Mann                       WDN Score: 12                   WDN Rank: 30

Strengths: Good shooter with consistent results; cerebral basketball who keeps mistakes to a minimum; good decision maker; can play multiple positions; strong rebounder at the guard position; decent handle;
 
Weaknesses: A classic example of a 3/4 tweener at the pro level, but lacks the athleticism to make a full-time transition to either position; shooting mechanics need work, as WNBA guards will be able to block her shot; defense is a major issue
