“The biggest highlight of my high school career was being able to change the girls’ basketball program at Indian Creek with my teammates and coaches,” Cole says. “As a team we were able to accomplish things that had never happened at Indian Creek School.”
Cole is also a member of the AAU Maryland Pride and earned first-team All-IAAM Conference, first-team All-County and second-team Baltimore Sun All-Metro.
Her ambitions include playing professional basketball overseas but she will focus on majoring in the medical field, eventually hoping to become a paramedic or EMT.
What tipped the scales for Cole to play for George Mason was their “outstanding academics and the caring coaching staff.”
Boasting a 3.0 GPA, Cole admires Ohio State men’s team point guard Aaron Craft because of his knack for handling opponents on the court and maintaining a 4.0 pre-med GPA in the classroom. Cole also cites her mother as a source of inspiration because of her strength and ability to always be there for her.
