Divine Savior Holy Angels president Ellen Bartel told TODAY'S TMJ4 that the Milwaukee school's alumna always comes in clutch.
"Can anyone name another player who's done it back to back in semi-final and a final game - I've not heard anybody come up with somebody who's equaled that feat," Bartel said.
