“Brinley is the type of player that given my best lineup, health and time to prepare, I am not sure that we would ever have been able to contain her. She was simply that good—speed, agility, vision and her touch were outstanding. She also scored at will.”

Meggie Lucas

Head Coach - head coach of Harpeth Hall School
