Taylor Proctor: Tenacious Two-Sport Athlete

Taylor Proctor, the nation's fifth-leading scorer heading into the weekend and one of the San Francisco team leaders, is good at basketball. Very good.

However, it might not even be the sport at which she's best, depending who you ask.

The senior from Colorado Springs, Colo., spent a brief but highly productive time on the handball court, playing left wing for Team USA. According to the U.S. Director of High Performance, David Gascon, Proctor would still rate as one of the top players in the nation, despite a nearly five-year hiatus.

Gascon was first introduced to the sport after his daughter Sarah made the transition from playing women's baseball for Team USA to picking up the sport of handball.
