Point guard Danesia Williamson, a four-year starter for Mount Miguel High of Spring Valley, was recruited by dozens of major college basketball powers from coast to coast.
Among the finalists was Providence University.
“You know, I really liked those people,” the 5-foot-5 Williamson said. “I considered leaving San Diego, but I never actually visited Providence. I like the atmosphere here where I live. I figure why go away when what I want is right here.”
Bottom line is Williamson committed to the University of San Diego earlier this week, while shunning overtures from Pepperdine, St. Mary’s, the University of Albany (N.Y.) and from the Friars.
Most comfortable in a fast-break offensive style, Williamson averaged 15.2 points as a junior and 20.4 as a sophomore.
“USD plays an up-tempo game and that’s what I like,” said Williamson, who has one more season with the Matadors. “I love a game that requires getting up and down the court fast.”
Williamson has proven she is an excellent passer at the point and a ballhawk on the defensive side where she’s garnered 4.7 steals per game last year.
