I found this on Twitter and was amazed by her comments. Lilly is the kind of recruit this program wants, 6’3” with a 4.0 GPA. From New Zealand. Click on the picture to read her entire quote. Impressive!

Is she a junior in high school this year if so she would be the recruiting class of 2023-24 would love to have her. I watched her video very impressive on the court and seems well grounded.

Yes, she will be part of the 23/24 class.

Wow. Very articulate- I like it. If she has game to go with her 6’3” frame - sign her up. My guess is Stanford will be a major player.

I think a lot of top schools will be after her but I think she is up for grabs with all the top schools. She was born in Los Angeles but moved to New Zealand when she was 2 years old. Coach Tara VanDeveer is 68 years old, if I was a recruit I would be concerned about how much longer she will be coaching.
I was hoping we were going to get Kennedy Basham but she ended up at Oregon and now Oregon has lost 4 key players to the transfer portal. What we have with CJW is a great coach that provides stability and a established program.
