Graves on Whitfield: Alexis is such a versatile player and has the ability to play multiple positions for us. She can score at an efficient rate, both in the paint with her back to the basket and she can step out and knock down the 3-point shot. She is a very smart rebounder, defender and passer with great vision that can handle the ball well. Her personality and character will be a great fit in the locker room and our program.
