COACH ROFF SAYS
"Ally comes from a great family of D-I athletes and we are very excited for what she brings to the team. She is an athletic player with very good pace and acceleration, who also has a great engine and can cover ground. She also is versatile in that she can be very effective out wide or playing in the middle of the park. Ally's technical ability is also very good; she does an excellent job of traveling with the ball and attacking space on the dribble. These qualities will allow her to compete to play at a variety of positions early on. I believe Ally's upside is tremendous and her best days are still ahead."
