She totaled a Titan record 611 points on the year, including a freshman game record of 31 at Loyola and became the first freshman to lead the team in scoring since head coach Autumn Rademacher topped the squad in 1994.

She was tabbed to the Jesuit Basketball Spotlight Honor Roll seven times during the year and was the JBS National Player of the Week on Feb. 14.

The All-Jesuit Team represents student-athletes from the 28 Jesuit colleges spread across the United States that play basketball on all three levels of the NCAA and also in the NAIA. They share the mission of Jesuit education, founded nearly 500 years ago under the principles of St. Ignatius Loyola to educate young people to become men and women dedicated to service and compassionate leadership. Students at Jesuit colleges have long excelled in the classroom and in the community, but they also have played a major role in collegiate basketball in the last 100 years.
