“I have waited a long time for this day to come,” said Reiss. “I was Kiyomi’s first P4 offer when I was at Syracuse and she came to our Elite camp in the fifth grade. I knew then that she would be a special talent.”
Reiss continues, “I really want the opportunity to coach Ki and teach her the things that she will need to progress to the next level. Kiyomi is a relentless worker, lives in the gym, loves the game and wants to win. Obviously, she is extremely skilled, and her handle is the best I have ever seen from a female. She is a three-level scorer who can create her shot at any time and can really score.
“Ki is committed to becoming a leader and investing in her teammates. She is hungry to learn, hungry to work and hungry to win. Gainesville, we got a good one. Welcome to The Swamp and our Gators family Kiyomi!”
