Elinor Priest TopDrawer interview

Here's a nice (short) interview with Elinor about the challenges of being recruited, fitness, and playing at the college level.


Note to future college players: Fitness is key

Good find, Geezer. For an athlete like Elinor to say that the college fitness demands are like nothing before, that says a lot. I recall her running all the time after school when she was at the same middle school as my older daughter. She put in the effort even then to excel. Plus she still does martial arts. I hope she has a prosperous college career.

i stated before in some other thread, but i believe that elinor will be this year's halley kreminski. i started to see her come on at the end of the season an i love her 'heavy' shot.

Played golf with Elinor's mom today.  She tells me Elinor loved her time at UP, but just wasn't getting the playing time she craved.
 
As a senior, she's flourishing at Northern Arizona and is maintaining a 4.0 GPA while still staying in touch with many of her former UP professors and students.
