In some ways the sheer number of points she scored is not representative of Lexie's greatest strength. Scoring 36 was a marvelous accomplishment for her, as was going 6/11 from three point range. But the most valuable part of Lexie's performances have typically been hustle and defense--as her 6 steals in that game do exemplify. A worthy accomplishment to remember her by!
Alyssa Jerome helps defeat Oregon State as a senior, going 4/5 from three point range. This was her career high with 14 points even though she did not start and played only 18 minutes. (She did start 26 games over her career, mainly in her sophomore and junior years.) What I will long remember, though, is that after more talented players entered the team and relegated Jerome primarily to the practice squad, she nevertheless stuck around for her senior and graduate years to maintain the sisterhood, mentor the youngsters, and was a tremendous fan and cheerleader, never betraying resentment or jealously.
