DURHAM, N.C.— The Blue Devil Network’s Rebecca Fiorentino and Duke women’s basketball newcomer Lexie Brown sat down recently for a quick interview to get to know the All-America transfer.
Brown, a junior from Suwanee, Ga., played two years at Maryland before heading to Durham where she will sit out the 2015-16 campaign and have two years of eligibility remaining. The 5-9 guard was an Associated Press All-America and All-Big Ten First Team selection as a sophomore where she averaged 13.3 points, 4.5 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 2.2 steals.
She drained 120 three-pointers in two seasons and started 66-of-70 contests, while helping lead the Terrapins to back-to-back NCAA Final Four appearances.
