She talked to the coaching staff and saw the campus and she loved what they have there. “She had a lot of schools on her list and I did encourage her to take her time. I’ve been (through recruiting myself. But she loved everything about UConn and she feels it’s the place where she can reach her goals and be the best that she can be. She’ll always have someone that supports her in me.” Among the other offers she had were from Louisville, Tennessee, North Carolina, Ohio State, West Virginia, and Miami-Florida. Gabriel, who is originally from Sudan and lives in the same Manchester neighborhood as UConn men’s freshman Akok Akok, comes from an athletic family. Her brother Wenyen played two years at Kentucky before signing with the Sacramento Kings on a two-way contract with the Stockton Kings of the NBA G League last summer. Another brother, Gob, is a freshman at Monmouth. Her sister, Karima, played at DePaul, Boston College, and Cal State Fullerton." [COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)]From the Dean's article in the JI. I suspect my post is redundant. I kept getting locked out with a wrongpage error message on the JI; most annoying. [/COLOR] “She’s a big, strong kid [B]and light on her feet[/B],” Hazelton said. “She’s got skills with a nice touch. She runs the floor. She does a lot of different things at our level and now she has to take that next jump. “Her best basketball is ahead of her. She’s just figuring it all out now. She’s worked hard to get into the position she’s in. We’re excited for her.” [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.journalinquirer.com/sports/gabriel-s-journey-takes-her-to-storrs/article_cba83fd0-dbc3-11e9-b91c-5f98a3d80e57.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
