What I Like Best About Bryan College: "I like the environment and teammates that I have at Bryan. I have really come to appreciate the staff and academic quality that Bryan makes available for the students attending. I have also come to realize that the student body at Bryan are amazing people from all over the nation that really want to make strong relationships with the other students and sincerely care about others."
Coach's Comment: "Hillary is an explosive offensive player. She is good off the dribble, yet keeps defenses honest with her ability to knock down the perimeter jumper. Defensively, she has quick feet and quick hands.She is also one of the more competitive people on our team. If she can stay healthy, as well as maintain consistency with her play, then she'll help us a great deal."
