Welcome to "Meet The Bonnies," a Bonnies Online Network series introducing members of the Bonnies women's basketball team. In this episode, we meet Elyse MacDonough.
Elyse talks about how the transition from prep school to NCAA Division I competition helped her basketball growth. Off the court bonding with teammates and summer workouts have been important to Elyse - as she also discusses her early basketball career, and how tough it was playing for her father in AAU. Elyse also details what brought her to St. Bonaventure, the culture and the community. Her post-basketball career could lead to coaching, since Elyse has a long line of coaches in her immediate family. The excitement of wearing the Brown and White and playing in the Reilly Center is also a huge extra for Elyse. And she gives some younger players advice on how to reach their basketball goals.
