"I chose UW Green Bay because of the culture. UW-Green Bay women's basketball has an amazing team culture composed of girls who not only want to win but want to improve as a player and a person coached by people with that same mindset. The fan base is just as impressive. There is no atmosphere like that of a UWGB women's basketball game. Some of the most inspiring people I have met are UW-Green Bay alumni. I can see how they have used their experience at UWGB to achieve amazing things. I am so excited to attend UWGB and play basketball with my sister Julianna."
