"Brigid is definitely one of the greatest players I have ever coached. She will see great success at Sonoma State because she is a very hard worker that doesn't cut corners. Her work ethic, along with her passion, will have her competing at her best. She is deserving of every accolade, academically and athletically, she has received here at Fullerton College. I'm happy her collegiate dreams are coming true. Brigid is a true example of what a student-athlete is and I appreciate her loyalty to our program", Hornet Head Coach Marian Mendoza.
