Coach
Middleton Says
Alicia has the opportunity to be one of the top post players
in the conference. She has a physical presence about her that
opposing teams have a lot of trouble with. She has a very
soft shot around the bucket with either hand. One of the big
things we’re challenging her to do this year is to hit
the boards a lot harder. We’d like to see her rebound
production go up.
