Fennell is a dependable leader with a bright future. She’s already looking forward to playing collegiately at Clemson University.

“I always wanted to go up in the South Carolina (area) because it’s so pretty up there when I visited,” Fennell told News 6. “I saw Clemson playing, and I was like, ‘I really like this environment up here.’ I started looking more into the school and I said, ‘I can really see myself playing here.’ So I started going to camps and getting to know the coaches. They’re amazing, I love their coaching style. I can’t wait to go play with these girls.”
