La'Anna Golden '18 Recruiting Profile

Being a leader and role model in my town and basketball is by far my biggest accomplishment. My favorite motto is from Magic Johnson. "There is winning and there's losing and in life you have to know they both will happen. But, what's never been acceptable to me is quitting."

I have learned over these years of playing and watching basketball that it is so easy to throw your hands up and give up, but I don't and encourage and push my teammates not to either.My teammates call me the "Firecracker" because not only am I explosive on the court I am that way in the classroom and the locker room and my life in general.

 I am looking for a program that will be a good fit for me athletically as well as academically. Not only do I believe I have the ability to play for a college team, my leadership, character and never going to give up attitude can make an impact on your program. As a three-sport athlete and team captain , I know that I have what it takes to be a leader on your team
