Nia Reed #6 OH 6’1″

Russ Rose Then (2018): “Nia is an incredibly physical player who needs to have the same confidence in her game that we have in her game, and hopefully, she’ll be the player that we can depend on. There’s never been a better opportunity for Nia to demonstrate that she’s ready to play. She’s always been playing behind All Americans, and with the departure of Simone and Ali, her chance to seize the position and make it her own is now.”
