Her work ethic and WANT to be in the gym is hard to come by right now. I have worked with her for almost 2 years and have been telling her she could become the best shooter in GA! She realized that goal as a sophomore, by winning the GHSA 3pt contest this year. She does not even realize the potential she has to be an all-around guard. As she comes into her own, I think she is going to make a great PG/shooting guard for some collegiate program."</em><br /><br /><em>- Christi Thomas, WNBA Veteran and HS Coach / Skill Developer<br /><br />"Emily is a proven three-point threat playing on a big stage. She continues to amaze me with her read and read capability and the ability to see the floor and avoid traps. She performs as a point guard on the floor with precision passes while being able to set up her teammates. A coach can count on her to get the offense started and she is a great asset to any team. I’m looking forward to following her growth as a player." <br /><br />- Coach Keith Dunn, Refined Player (contact:&nbsp;(706) 728-0961,&nbsp;<a href="mailto:refinedplayer123@gmail.com">refinedplayer123@gmail.com</a>)<br /><br />"The purest shot in Georgia, Acampora is the definition of a three-point specialist. She can't be given any space on the perimeter. If she has a clear look at the basket, more often than not she will bury attempts. She can step in right away and fill a need for collegiate programs."<br /><br />- Georgia Prep Girls Hoops</em>
