Lauren Fields will take her last final at Oklahoma State on Friday, and plans to be in Tucson in time for offseason training to begin in June.
PJ Brown Special to the Arizona Daily Star Lauren Fields felt no need to rush her decision of where she would play basketball for the next two years.On the second day of her official visit to Arizona — a month after UA coach Adia Barnes visited Fields’ home — it became clear that she was going to become a Wildcat.
"I think I think just me being comfortable actually really stood out to me. It showed that's where I needed to be." "It felt like it was like a family," Fields said."…Once I visited Arizona, I knew it was the place I wanted to be." The 5-foot-9-inch Fields can play point guard, shooting guard and small forward. She averaged 15.4 points and 4.1 rebounds per game and grabbed 67 steals and dished 51 assists during her sophomores season. She was named second-team All-Big 12 and a first-team academic all-conference member."I was forced to take tough shots just because I was the best player on the team," Fields said.
"I take it personal getting scored on, so I just shut my defender down," Fields said."I play well in the passing lines, getting my hands on stuff and creating easy baskets. When I was a freshman, my dad told me defense is how you get on the court. I just always stood by that, and it elevates my game.”
Fields said her official visit was fun — there was lots of good food, conversation and a big closing pitch. Arizona fit the criteria she was focusing for.
