Bio
Get to know Libby…
Why Kansas?
I picked Kansas because of the atmosphere. It’s so cool to be here and I love all the people here.
How would you describe your playing style?
I really like to shoot the ball, so I’m a big shooter but I also like to drive and pull up. My game has expanded over the past years.
Who is your role model?
My role model is my parents because they’ve taught me so much. They always know what to do and know how to go about things.
Best advice you’ve received?
Probably to have a lot of effort, even when the ball isn’t going through the hoop. Just to work hard on defense and have effort.
Favorite thing to do off the court?
Off the court I love to hang out with my friends. I’m also a big pickleball player so I love to do that and swim in the summertime.
