Rutherford on LeValley: "Maggie brings a lot of experience and leadership to the team. She played point guard consistently throughout the year. She has good judgement and can get the team in our motion offense. She has improved her shooting over the summer and that will add to her game, along with her increased confidence this year. We're looking for Maggie to use her knowledge of the game and experience to lead the team. She has really improved her quickness and moves to the basket over the summer."
