"Hailey, truly, one of her greatest gifts is she has no chill. She goes, she's the ultimate competitor in everything that she does in her grind, in her preparation. We have a pro that's still in college. So, the impact she's had on this group, with our staff, in just TCU women's basketball," he said.

Van Lith began her college career at Louisville, where she played for three seasons. She then transferred to LSU where she experienced a tough season, prompting her to move to TCU.
