12 Danielle Lewis

Thoughts on the 2011-12 Season...
"I believe our team this season will prove everyone wrong in Region IX. Everyone is predicting the same from last season and I believe we have the weapons to prove everyone wrong. What's so great about our team is we all get along and laugh while off the court, but when we get on the floor it is time to get to work!"
Why did you choose TSJC...
"I choose TSJC because I could tell from watching in the stands that Coach Holden was a great guy. I knew he wanted different results from the previous season and I wanted to be a part of his journey for a great season."
