Clearwater grad Rachel Hammond, our 2004-05 Player of the Year and the state's Class 5A Player of the Year, is seen here cutting down the nets after scoring a team-high 13 points to lead Liberty to the Big South title and the NCAA Tournament.
The No. 14 seed Flames, who started the season 1-6 but have won 23 of 25 games since, have a tough draw -- they meet No. 3 Louisville in the first round Sunday.
Regardless, Hammond has had a nice career. She is a three-time Big South Presidential Honor Roll member, she was a team captain this year and posted her best numbers: 8.3 points and a team-high 41 three-pointers.
