Aaliyah is the backbone of our forward corps, the one we know can get the job done. First team All American this year, Canadian Olympian this year, National Champion this year. After that, WNBA. The next two years will be sureal for this young lady, and I know all her dreams will come true. Geno will see to that.

Let's all hope!

Clarification required. She's aiming to be an Olympian next year for Paris. The Americup is part of the qualification process.
