They are great people who will continue to help build the kind of culture we are building here. "Our fans are going to enjoy watching them play and they are going to bring excitement to McBrayer Arena."

She is a member of the honor roll.
 
"Kendall is a dynamic guard that will be an immediate impact player as soon as she steps on campus," Williams said. "She has the ability to not only score but has great court vision and play making ability to set up her teammates as well. To be able to get a player of Kendall's caliber in our first true recruiting class was huge in what we are building at EKU."
