Episode Synopsis
Claire Johnson has always been a skilled basketball player. But she started varsity in 8th grade she was barely 5' tall and less than 100 lbs. She was knocked around on the court by older, more physical players and had to learn to play in that style. 2 years later she has grown 9-10 inches or more and she used all the tools she learned when she was smaller to physically overwhelm guards her last 3 years of high school. She was not heavily recruited out of high school, but found a great fit at Samford University where she got immediate playing time. Although there was a learning curve, she adapted well having a strong freshman season earning second team all conference. After a coaching change, she made the very difficult decision to enter the transfer portal and weigh her options, and the offers came rolling in from all over the country! She ultimately committed to the University of Nebraska in Lincoln and will continue her athletic career there. SHe is now giving back to the community by hosting her own signature basketball camp this July 10-11 for young girls! There is not a more polished, well rounded young person to be a role model for these kids!
