What Coach Tsip has to say: 

"We are excited to welcome Taj Hunter and her family to the Western Carolina women's basketball family. Taj is a winner! She played a key role on the Georgia 7A state championship Grayson High School Lady Rams. She is a tenacious defender who consistently shut down the top perimeter player on the opposing team. Offensively, she is a skilled 3-point shooter who also is an unselfish passer. Taj brings a great work ethic and championship mentality to Catamount Nation."
