Why did you choose ICC?
"I chose Itawamba because I am looking forward to a new start being on the very first ICC volleyball team and working with Coach Morgan. I believe that with hard work we will make history and set the standard for the upcoming years."
What can LaMaya bring to ICC?
"Maya brings a quiet leadership but always a spark to the team. Her athleticism and competitiveness help her excel. Her work ethic is one of the best in the gym. Her teammates love her and she will push herself to get better and do what the team needs her to do." – Coach Margaret Falatko, DeSoto Central HS
From Coach Morgan
"LaMaya will be a huge presence for us in the Middle, and will be a huge wall that will frustrate hitters. I expect her to lead the state in blocks and also be a vital threat out of the middle."
