Meet Liv…
Career aspirations: Sports Broadcaster/Journalist or Basketball Coach.
Three words to describe yourself: Goofy, Loyal and Determined.
Best or most memorable moment as a member of your Spider program (doesn't have to be on the field/court): The best moment that I've had so far here is the first time I stood in line for the National Anthem at the Robins Center. Holding hands with my teammate, I felt invincible with this family. It was an amazing feeling that I had when I was able to take the moment of realizing where I was. I am blessed with such an amazing opportunity.
The best nickname on the team: "LT" Lauren Tolson.
Strengths: My actual upper body strength and my competitiveness.
Toughest opponents: Dayton, St. Joseph's and VCU.
Working to improve: My ball handling and three-point shooting and staying low.

If you could go on any game show: FAMILY FEUD! I am working on getting out team on it.
Hidden talent: I can close one eye like a doll can, it's creepier and weirder than a regular wink.

If you could travel anywhere in the world: I would love to go to Italy.
