Coach Posey on Green
"Leah has a wonderful personality and the ability to relate to everyone, so she'll fit in well with her new teammates. She has great command of the back court and is always positive, but she's all business at game time. A confident competitor with a great motor, Leah has tremendous defensive skills that cater to our playing style. We believe she has a chance to play early in her career and add to the quality of hard-working defenders already in place. We fell in love with Leah and her family when they came on campus and are excited for the whole family to join the Roo Family!"
