Head coach Kelly Graves on Mevius: Elisa is incredibly talented and a relentless defender. She immediately upgrades our backcourt both in terms of skill and leadership. She really is a five-tool type of player who can score, defend, rebound and distribute to teammates. A player like that, and with her positive attitude and willingness to work hard, can fit into any system and be successful. We can’t wait to get her here to Eugene and see what she can do.
