Why I chose Bryan College: "I chose Bryan College because Coach Bechler, Coach Crews, all the girls and other members of the Women's Basketball program were so awesome and really welcomed me to the college. When I came on my campus visit, I got to experience what student life was like at Bryan, and I really liked what I saw. Everyone was so friendly, and I could really see myself attending college at Bryan and surrounding myself with positive people in a Christian environment"

 

Coach's Comment: "Even though she is new to our team, Cori has been a very solid college player for two years. We feel that she can step right in and help us immediately. She can do a lot of things. She is a good shooter, handles the ball well, can put the ball on the floor and plays smart defense. We also like that she can play either of the guard positions. Additionally, she'll provide a great deal of leadership to our team. She is mature and extremely coachable."
