Pearl River women's basketball adds former NJCAA All-American to staff
POPLARVILLE, Miss. – Pearl River head women's basketball coach Scotty Fletcher has added former NJCAA DI All-American Mikayla Etienne to his 2024-2025 staff.
"It was imperative for me to find the right person and right fit to add to my staff for the upcoming season. I feel Mikayla will fit right in with Coach Mc and myself. She brings a strong playing resume and is familiar with our league and the caliber of player it takes to win within our league," Fletcher said. "She is a proven winner and comes from a great family while bringing a lot of energy which is always a plus.
"I feel she will be invaluable in assisting in recruiting, player development, and day-to-day operations within my program. Every person I spoke with about her had the same thing to say about her, which tells me she is consistent. She did an excellent job of making sure I knew and was aware that she wanted the job here at Pearl River and wanted to join the Wildcat family and her actions spoke volumes with her pursuit daily."
