Mill Valley guard Whitney Hazlett liked what she saw in Kansas City Kansas Community College’s 28-4 women’s basketball team this spring. On Tuesday, Hazlett became a part of the Lady Blue Devil program by signing a letter of intent.
“I liked it (KCKCC) a lot,” said Hazlett, who saw the Blue Devils in games and in practice. “I really liked the pace of play and it was all very welcoming.”
A 5-6 shooting guard, Hazlett helped lead Mill Valley to a 16-3 record this past spring. The third leading scorer, she averaged 8 points and 4 assists a game while shooting 76 percent from the foul line.
“She’s a great athlete, very versatile who can score off the dribble,” said KCKCC coach Valarie Stambersky. “I’m really looking forward to the opportunity to coach her.”
