UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - While a lot of attention has been on Penn State's freshman class this offseason, one of the biggest overlooked stories belongs to a member of the senior class. Candice Agee, one of just two seniors on the team, is prepping for her final season in a Lady Lion uniform.
Hailing from Victorville, California, Agee started her journey as a Lady Lion back in 2012 when she played in 26 games as a true freshman. Now, three years later, as the start of her last season inches near, she has a lot to look forward to.
"You'd think [my emotions] would be a little high, but right now I actually feel really good about it," Agee said. "I'm really confident in my team and we've been working really hard since the end of the season last year. I'm just a little anxious, excited and ready to get going."
Agee led the team in blocks last year with 53 (1.8 per game), and was second in rebounds with 176 (6.1 per game). But during the offseason, Agee worked hard to get better, focusing on her fundamentals to overall improve her game. And standing at 6-foot-6, she's worked on strengthening her lower body to help her compete.
