Liz Wood was an unexpected addition to the team when she was accepted as a walk-on. She was a guard for the Henry County Patriots and won 66 games over three years. She helped the Patriots to a tie for first in her senior year. She captained her team and was named all-district.
 
 
Name: Liz Wood
 
Why do wear #00
"Well that was the number handed to me and me being a walk-on, I'll take any number they can give me. However, I choose number 11 because in middle school I was number 21 and high school I was number 10. I took one number from each in order to keep in mind the younger days of my career."
 
Coach Katie's take on Liz
"We added Liz this fall as a walk-on. She is a great kid and has been dedicated to our program, coming in most mornings to get extra time on the court, working on her game. She has been a good fit for our team and we are so happy to have her."

Favorite sports movie?

Favorite pre-game meal?

Three words that describe me?
