DAYTONA BEACH, Florida — Flagler Palm Coast’s Armani Walker freshman season at Bethune-Cookman has ended before it every really began.
The 5-8 guard injured her ACL in practice and will miss the season, according to coach Vanessa Blair-Lewis.
“Armani went down with an ACL and we were counting on her giving us some minutes,” Blair-Lewis said Wednesday at B-CU.
Former Deltona star, freshman forward Chasimmie Brown, is the other local on Blair-Lewis' roster.
“(Brown) does a good job coming in for Kailyn (Williams) and I would love to have them both on the floor at the same time,” Blair-Lewis said.
As the Wildcats open the season at 6 p.m. Friday vs. Brown University, here’s five things to watch for this season:
1. Williams’ paint presence
Williams is simply an imposing defensive player. At 6-4, the redshirt junior center has made herself a shot-blocking machine. She put B-CU on the national radar by finishing third in the nation in Division I in blocks per game (4.43) last season.
