In a video posted to Twitter, Sciolla thanked her coaches, family and youth travel basketball team and looked forward to playing under coach Brenda Frese at Maryland.

“Her expectations for her entire program match my own, and while basketball isn’t entirely about cutting down the net, the journey to try and get there is absolutely worth it,” Sciolla said.
