Rachel Arthur Commits


Rachel Arthur has been a key part of Atascocita's success since her sophomore season when the team elevated their status to one of the areas best. Along the way, she was known for her outside shooting but over this past summer her defense caught the eye of many college coaches. When school ball started this season she showed she could run the point as well while Curtyce Knox was recovering from an ACL injury. Arthur has been on a tear since December averaging around 15 ppg and the poise she has shown on the court shows how complete her game has become. I just spoke to her dad William who confirmed she will be attending Houston Baptist University next season. He said " She weighed her options and this was the best fit for her. It's a great school and it's also close to home". I agree and I also expect Rachel to step right in and contribute next season. Congratulations!
