Laura Lee, a 5-foot-8 shooting guard who led Palmer High to an Alaska state title, has signed to play women’s basketball at Vanguard University, Coach Russ Davis said Monday.

Lee was selected the most valuable player of the Alaska state tournament and was an honorable mention All-American choice by USA Today.

“She is strong and can rebound well,” Davis said. “She had 271 three-pointers in her career, so obviously she can shoot the ball, too. I think she’s going to help us achieve our goal, which is to win a national title.”
