He also explains how recruiting starts with real connection — Instagram outreach, questionnaires, and FaceTime conversations that help identify athletes who match the culture and the work. Beyond the field, he’s focused on creating a sisterhood‑oriented environment that prepares players academically, mentally, and structurally for the next level.
