Two days.
That's how long it took from the time Lexi Wallen officially decided to join the basketball team for her to score her first points.
Wallen's four-year volleyball career came to a close on Friday, November 30, 2018 in an NCAA Tournament loss. She was a hooper in high school—a three-time all-state one at that—but had barely touched a basketball in the four years since. "Maybe if I was at home and my brother was shooting in the driveway."
Meanwhile, the women's basketball team was in the midst of a personnel crisis. Injuries had depleted the active roster to eight, six of whom were guards.
