COACH MOORE'S TAKE:
"Grace is a passionate, high-motor player. She has good size and is able to get to the rim. She's a great rebounder. Her three-point shooting is very solid, and it's something she has worked hard on. As is the case with most dynamic scorers, she is able to score in a variety of ways. That is what makes her tough to matchup with becuase she is definitely not a one-dimensional player. We are excited to bring her back home to Raleigh and get her here at NC State."
