Lilia Suarez, a newly freshman transfer from the Philippines. She currently goes to the University of South Carolina and was lucky enough to make the basketball team. But because of her lack of game experience and has only been playing street basketball back in her home country, she had a hard time keeping up. So, even if she is a part of the team, she's only a bench player.
She had her first game on the SEC Championship against LSU. There was originally no plan for her to play, but because of the fight that occurred, she had to go inside the court to play. Then, she was assigned to guard one of the best players of women's college basketball, Hailey Van Lith.
Hailey was impressed, to say the least. Especially since she is not that tall, she still was able to put up a fight.
After the game, the two met. Which made a friendship build between them. Not only a friendship built, but a rumor about them, too. Both sides were able to deny it very fast. But time came, and the rumors aren't becoming a rumor anymore. The friendship built isn't a friendship anymore. It was something more.

Off the Court - Paige Bueckers
Emmie Cano has been playing for USC for the past three years. She is not only the best player on the team but one of the best players in the country. She has an average point of 22 per game, and almost no one can guard her. That is, except for her competition, Paige Bueckers. Paige Bueckers is slightly above her with a 23-per-game average, securing her as the #1 spot as the best women's college basketball player. Emmie and Paige have been switching between the #1 and #2 spots for the past 3 years, with Emmie having the spot her freshman year. Everyone knows them as the biggest rivals in women's college basketball. Every game between USC v. UCONN becomes intense, with the highest watched and populated game of the entire season, with fans dying to see the interactions and rivalry between Emmie and Paige. The tension is high, and the thought of Paige makes Emmie's blood boil. While USC has treated her well in the past, Emmie was shocked to find an offer from UCONN's coach in her phone for her incoming senior year. Her first instinct was to ignore it and laugh, but then she thought. UCONN was closer to her family, given they live in NYC. Emmie, with her dad in a coma back home, time zones, being unable to see her family, and being on the opposite side of the world all took a toll on Emmie. Not only was UCONN more practical, but it was her dream since she was in 8th grade. She was not offered a spot at UCONN in the freshman recruitment process, and USC became her best offer. Although the thought of being on the same team as Paige enraged her, she knew Paige could not let her stop her. It was a challenging choice to make. USC felt like home for Emmie. From the warm weather to the team to her friends, she felt complete. Yet basketball is her life, and she knew UCONN could increase her skill and give her a better experience as a player and her life. So, after talking to UCONN's coach, her decision became clear. Emmie is going to UCONN.

New Heights
I felt his hand as it gently pushed the strands of hair that were blocking his view of my face, behind my shoulder. The action caused his fingers to involuntarily graze my jawline and neck making me stiffen. The short contact left my body feeling warm and my breathing to suddenly turn irregular. "I think you look beautiful." He said in that deep, soft voice that made me feel funny. I could still feel his fingers in my hair as they now seemed to instinctively move around the strands. "Thank you.." I whispered, surprised at how softly it came out. Could he even hear it? "My pleasure mamas." He replied, giving me my answer. The words leaving his lips sounded so good that I had to look to make sure he'd actually said them. Before I knew it my body was slowly leaning towards him and even in my dazed state I didn't miss his inching towards mine. • • • Follow Athena Kingman as she experiences life and love in ways that she's never imagined before.
