Morgan Valley hadn't played in her first national championship yet and she already knew what path her career would be following.
During Valley's sophomore season at UConn she was a member of perhaps the greatest team in women's college basketball history but due to her ongoing battle with plantar fasciitis left Valley in a position of doing more watching than playing during that magical 2001-02 season.
After being a member of three national championship teams at UConn, Valley stayed on for a season as a student assistant. The rest, as they say is history.
After working on the staffs at Holy Cross, Towson, New Hampshire, UMass and Virginia Tech, she is in the midst of her first season on Mike Neighbors' staff at Washington.
