"In her three seasons, Emilee established herself as not just one of the best players to have played at Frostburg State, but in Division II women's basketball history.", said FSU Women's Basketball Head Coach Jenna Eckleberry. "Her statistics speak for themselves, but her dedication and leadership cannot be understated. She is the hardest working athlete both on the court and in the classroom and has always been the first to step up in a leadership role. She embodies every great quality you could ask for in a player and above all else, is an even better person."
