Career Highs
"Ajalon Gillard is an outstanding addition to the program. Ajalon is a 5-8 guard that has the ability to score at a high level from the point guard or combo guard position. Her motor never stops and I know our fans will love her infectious energy. Ajalon has been coached by some of the best in the state including her father, Bruce Gillard. She has the chance to have a tremendous career for us."
