“I wasn’t planning on committing,” Mershon said by phone Monday. “But after seeing the game and everything I just felt liked I loved it and I had to come.
“The coaches are amazing. They came from South Dakota and they won the WNIT, so it shows that they can win and they have a strategy to win. Also, that they beat Indiana (Sunday), which shows their potential for the future. The girls are really nice. I’ve enjoyed all of them. I met (NU signee) Taylor Kissinger at the game, and I really enjoyed her company, and I loved the crowd at the game.”
