After five seasons of college basketball and three seasons with the Mountaineers, one player leaves a legacy, emerging as a team leader and nominee for many accolades.
Fifth-year senior forward Michaela Porter began playing basketball when she was in elementary school. Her start in basketball came with the developmental league her father ran on Mondays and Wednesdays, but prior to playing basketball, she competed in cheerleading and other sports.
Porter has been a Mountaineer for the past three seasons and just completed her fifth season of college basketball after the NCAA granted student-athletes a year of eligibility in response to the pandemic.
