"I am incredibly excited to have Madison join our Charleston Southern Women's Basketball family!" Garcia said. "She comes to us as a genuine person, natural leader, incredible athlete, skilled player and proven winner. Madison's time at Hoover, where she was coached by Krystle Johnson, has enabled her to learn how a championship-winning culture done the right way operates and succeeds, so we are excited to have her bring that experience to CSU! Our players have embraced her week and we can't wait for Buc Nation to see her and her teammates compete this season!"
