Ta’Niya Latson (Westlake HS, Atlanta, GA) committed to Florida State this afternoon. The 5’8 Latson is a consensus five star player who is ranked #17 overall by ESPN’s HoopGurlz. Latson is the first member of FSU’s 2022 recruiting class. Latson chose FSU over Baylor, Georgia, Kentucky, Miami (FL), NC State, Texas and Virginia Tech.
Latson is a dynamic ball hawking guard who is known for her athleticism. However, she also has an advanced skill set and is fiercely competitive.
This is a very important recruit for FSU for a number of reasons (in no particular order):
- FSU lost its recruiting coordinator over the summer when Assistant Coach Joy McCorvey moved on to Tennessee.
