Fort Smith Northside junior point guard Jersey Wolfenbarger has 30 scholarship offers, but the first one delivered by University of Arkansas women’s basketball Coach Mike Neighbors won’t be forgotten.
Neighbors extended the offer to Wolfenbarger after her freshman season in the spring of last year. Since then, her offer list has grown along with her height.
“I feel like he was the first one to see and believe in me as a player,” Wolfenbarger said. “I’ve grown a lot since he offered me. He had enough faith in me to want to build a relationship, and we want you to know we offered you and we really love your game.
