COACH MOORE’S TAKE:
“Madison is a player that excels in all three phases of her game. Offensively, she can get to the rim as well knock down the three. Defensively, her combination of strength and quickness allows her to be a lockdown defender. These same attributes make her a relentless rebounder on both ends of the court. We’re excited to add the talent and toughness of Madison to the NC State program.”
