A four-star standout who earned a scout's grade of 95 from ESPNW ... Ranked as the ninth best wing player in the class of 2015 and the 72nd overall ... In 2014, earned a spot on the News & Observer's All-Metro Team while leading her team to a conference championship ... Also named Greter Neuse River Player of the Year and earned a place on the league's all-conference team in 2014.
Coach Moore's Take: "She has great potential. She is a strong, athletic guard with good size who can shoot the three as well as take it to the basket. Amber also has the potential to be a factor on the offensive boards. She comes from an outstanding high school program (Southeast Raleigh) which reached the state finals."
