Description

Arysia Porter is going from her studies and the St. Mary’s University hardwood to playing with the electrifying Harlem Globetrotters! After receiving a call to participate in a one-day tryout in Atlanta, Porter was selected along with four other women to join the Globetrotter roster. While this is a great achievement, Porter sees this as a great inspiration for other girls. During her time at St. Mary’s Porter held the record for the most points in a single game, as well as having earned a degree in criminology. Aside from being a Globetrotter, Porter she stays working in San Antonio with the Spurs as well as substituting at her high school alma mater. Porter can also be known as “Ace” due to her personality and playstyle.
