Bio
2021-22 (SOPHOMORE):
2020-21 (FRESHMAN):
PRIOR TO NC STATE:
COACH MOORE'S TAKE:
"Genesis is dynamite in a small package. She has the ability to score the ball in a variety of ways. At Lovejoy, she was on the verge of being a very rare 90-50-40 (FT%-FG%-3FG%) player. Her willingness to take a charge against any player on the court is a testament to her toughness and competitive nature. Bottom line, Gen brings a winner's mentality to the Wolfpack!"
