In his comments regarding Liz, CCC Coach Anthony Wilson said "Liz is just a winner.  If you look at her stature, it's tough to believe that she put up the numbers that she did, but she just got the job done.  As a coach's daughter, she comes into our program with a high basketball IQ.  In talking with Liz and her father, I am excited to see how God will use Liz's passion for Christ to impact her teammates and others while she is at CCC."
