In reply to: Found this article on 2019's W Kiki or Kiyana Jefferson.  posted by Fighting_Artichoke


On top of what FA reported, she was named Penn Player of the Year by USA Today (see below for first team). Alli Campbell was named Gatorade Player of the Year.

She also plays with Alli Campbell, Maddie Burke and Kylee Watson on the Philly Belles AAU Team...see a link below.

Like FA, I'm not aware that she's currently on ND's radar right now, but it seems like she's got a host of D1 opportunities.
