From small town Kansas to big time college basketball.
But it didn’t happen overnight for Jamie Patrick, the leading scorer for Colorado State’s women’s basketball team.
Coming out of a tiny, 1A high school in Hutchinson, Kansas, Patrick wanted to prove she could play at the Division I level. She had plenty of credentials. In 2012, as a high school senior, she was named the Kansas 1A player of the year. Patrick led her high school squad to a second place finish in the 1A state championship game both in 2012 as a senior and the previous year as a junior.
