In her senior season, Marshall University forward Leah Scott has seen the trials and tribulations of college basketball.

From adjusting to new coaches to meshing with changing teammates to acclimating to multiple cities and towns, Scott’s collegiate career has been a nomadic experience.

Scott, whose hometown is Detroit, Michigan, has played for three different universities during her college tenure, which have ranged from Michigan to Iowa to West Virginia.

After beginning her career at Central Michigan University and receiving little playing time, Scott transferred to Iowa Western Community College for the 2012-13 season, where she was named to the National Junior College All-America Second Team.
