How does an undersized relatively slow kid with no really striking athletic feature do that? Repetition and dedication best I can figure.
He should have been born in 1950s Indiana sort of dedication. In the gym shooting before daylight year round kind of dedication.
He turned that into NAIA offers and, most importantly to him I believe, a chance to continue playing for another four years.
I'm not saying that's the path for your daughter, sounds like she has other stuff in her toolbox, but "consistent reps" should not be undervalued.

Very true, Jon. Most kids don't understand the work that needs to be put in to fully utilize their abilities. The sooner they learn, the better player they become. Have to be sure to balance that out with school and a social life, but a couple of hours a day of focused training can do wonders for your skillset.
