Bio

2018-19: Hugely important role player, as she is an ultra-tough inside player…Excels at the little things that don’t typically show up in box scores, like boxing out, setting strong screens and being that all-important physical presence in the paint…Scored 85 points and had 83 rebounds while starting 25 of the team’s 30 games on the season…Opened the season by scoring 9 points while being guarded by the national player of the year at Lewis…A capable outside shooter, hitting on 35 percent of her 3-point attempts…Grabbed a season-high 8 rebounds in a home win over Ohio Valley Jan. 10.

2017-18: Made huge strides in her game and became a regular part of the frontcourt rotation in the second half of the season…Provided strength and toughness in the paint for the team…Had 6 points and 7 rebounds in a Feb. 17 win over Ohio Valley, playing in a career-high 24 minutes in that win…Grabbed at least one rebound in each of her last eight games of the season.

2016-17: Played in one game during the season while dealing with a lingering injury...Was able to gain a medical redshirt for the season, meaning she will have four seasons of eligibility with the Chargers starting in 2017-18.

High School: Highly skilled forward who played on some very successful teams at Ann Arbor Huron High School...Team was district and divisional champions in 2014, 2015 and 2016...A four-year varsity letterwinner...Three-time winner of the Scholar-Athlete Award, and was the SEC Sportsmanship Award winner in 2015-16...Played AAU basketball for the Michigan Sting, the Top Ten and All Ohio...A two-time winner of the NAACP Academic Achievement Award...A member of the National Honor Society for two years...In 2015, she won the National Academy of Youth Leadership Award of Excellence...Born May 12, 1998...Parents are James Chikwe and Tameka Lewis.
