COACH ADAIR SAYS
"Chyna's toughness, versatility and ability to score inside and out is what excites me for our program. She brings size and athleticism on the perimeter while committing to defense and the extra effort plays. While she is not able to play this season, she's really going to help us in practice. She is tough to guard and that is going to make us better. I'm excited for what's to come for Chyna and our program."
WHY DELAWARE?
"I chose to transfer to Delaware because it really feels like home. From the minute I spoke to the coaching staff, I felt a sense of belonging. This program will make me not only a better basketball player, but an overall better player."
