Mack is a sophomore guard who is transferring from Montgomery College. While there, she poured in 12.5 points and snagged 7.7 rebounds a game. Mack tallied a season-high 30 points against CCBC Catonsville. The Gaithersburg, Md., product attended Northwest H.S., leading the squad to the Class 4-A state championship.
