“Bria is the embodiment of a stellar student-athlete,” said Coach Chris Leonard<\/strong>. “Many excel in academics or athletics, but Bria is one of the few that I have had the privilege to work with that is truly elite in the classroom and on the court. This award is a testament to her hard work and is a well-deserved addition to her illustrious career at Hawai\u02bbi Hilo.”<\/p>\n
