ACES SCOUTING REPORT

“Kelsey Mitchell is a natural scorer with a potent combination of strength, quickness, and body control.  She excels at getting into the lane, and making plays for herself and others, and is a terrific ball-handler.”

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING

“She is the hardest worker I’ve ever been around. She is absolutely relentless about improving her game.”

      ~ Kevin McGuff, Ohio State Head Coach

“I talked to her after the game, and told her that I hope I never have to play you in a game ever again as long as I possibly live.”

      ~ Holly Warwick, Tennessee Head Coach 

“She’s impossible to guard. There’s no shot that she can’t make, won’t take. She gets a head of steam up, forget it. You’re not going to stop her.”

      ~ Geno Auriemma, UConn Head Coach

“We were not going to be able to stop Kelsey Mitchell man-to-man.”

      ~ Suzy Merchant, Michigan State Head Coach
