Surrounded by family, coaches, and teammates, local standout Brenna Rucker made her collegiate dreams official this week, signing to continue her basketball career with the Lions at Lindenwood University in St. Charles, Mo.
For Rucker, the decision to pursue college athletics has been a lifelong goal. “I knew I wanted to play a sport in college ever since I was little,” she said. “I watched both of my older brothers play sports in college and knew that was also a goal I had. Around 4th grade, I knew I wanted to play basketball in college. I started playing club basketball and knew this was the sport I loved the most.”
