Elaine Elliott On the Recruiting Class
"We needed to strengthen our guard play as we graduate three senior perimeter players. This class fills that need."
Hennasea Tokumura Quotes
Coach Elliott Says - "A true point guard with shooting, set up and finish skills. She is a student of the game and relishes the role of floor general."
Iolani Head Coach Glenn Takara Says - "Hennasea's statistics on the floor, the awards she has won in recognition of her play, both with her high school and club teams, speak of a tremendous competitor. Besides the talent she brings, perhaps her greatest quality is her competitive nature. She just hates to lose, and that is an attitude that coaches love and dream about. In Hennasea, the Utes will get a young lady with a great desire and an intense ambition to be the best she can be, both on and off the floor."
Kalakaua AAU Coach Mike Taylor Says - "I am really excited about the opportunity that Hennasea will have in attending the University of Utah and getting a top-notch education. She's a special kid who is just beginning to understand her potential to be great."
Hennasea Tokumura Says - "The University of Utah is the best of all worlds. The Utes are a combination of a legendary head coach and outstanding assistant coaches in a top-20 Division I program. Plus, I'll get a great education."
Brette Ulsaker Quotes
Coach Elliott Says - "A very versatile guard with a wide array of skills. Brette has great competitive experience and knows how to win."
McPherson High School Coach Chris Strathman Says - "Brette is an outstanding competitor who gets the most out of her God-given abilities. We have had some very competitive kids come through our program, but none that hated to lose more than Brette Ulsaker. Brette will bring versatility at the guard position to the Utah program. She has the strength and the athleticism to be a very good defender at the next level. Brette will be successful at Utah--and it all goes back to how hard she will compete."
Brette Ulsaker Says - "I liked the style, the coaches and the players. Coach Elliott is awesome."
Kalee Whipple Quotes
Coach Elliott Says - "A big, strong guard/forward who brings a great deal of athleticism and skill. She has simply dominated her level of competitiion."
Pahranagat Valley Coach Amy Huntsman Says - "Kalee is more than just a great athlete, she is a good person. There are good athletes everywhere you look, but few are as talented and unselfish as Kalee. She truly cares more about the game and her team than herself. I will desperately miss her ability and watching her play. But I will miss her personality and friendship even more."
Kalee Whipple Says - "Signing with Utah came down to a combination of things. I liked the program. I know I'll get a great education there. The players I met were really nice and I loved the coaches ... they were very kind."
Halie Sawyer Quotes
Coach Elliott Says - "Halie gives us a 6-1, long, athletic forward. She understands what it takes to compete and win at the championship level."
Panguitch High School Coach Curtis Barney Says - "Halie is a very gifted player, capable of playing any position. She has very quick feet. Halie runs, passes, shoots and handles the ball very well. She has all the skills a coach looks for in a complete player. Halie is a great competitor and comes from a winning program, built on hard work and dedication. With that background, she'll fit into the Utah program very well."
Halie Sawyer Says - "If you can play for a school that's made the Elite Eight, your parents can drive to see you play and it's only four hours away from home, who wouldn't do it? That's a big opportunity."
Elaine Elliott on the Class After the Addition of Halie Sawyer
"Our incoming class for next season fills some immediate needs and we're thrilled to have each one of them join our program."
