COACH MOORE'S TAKE:
"I've always believed that rebounding is the most important part of the game, and Lizzy averaged double figures on the boards last season. At 6-5, she will give us a great presence at both ends of the court on the block. She has also shown the ability to constantly knock down the 15-foot jumper. With Lizzy's experience and basketball IQ, we're looking for her to make a big impact."
