When Briana Morris first stepped on to the USA campus as a freshman in 2016, all she wanted to do was belong. She was recruited into the top team in the Sun Belt Conference, one that had just won its second straight regular-season title and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament for the first time in program history.
She had to start at the bottom – behind a former Sun Belt Freshman of the Year and a future player of the year. It brought back memories to when she first joined the soccer team at Hoover High School as an eighth-grader.
