Biggest sports thrill: “When the University of Utah offered me a scholarship.”

Best advice I’ve ever received:  “Never give up.  Keep working.”

Last Week:  Munns poured in 20 points for the 6-0 Bees in a 55-38 victory over Bear River last Tuesday and then dropped in another 15 as Box Elder defeated Orem 42-33 on Saturday.  She’s averaging just over 18 points per game for the season

Munns on her performance:  “I think (the season) has been going great.  I think (the key) has been our teamwork and going out and having fun.  I don’t have any worries now (because of the scholarship).  I just get to go out there and play.  The loss (to Timpview in the state 4-A quarterfinals last season) put it even more in perspective that we had a lot of work to do.  There’s nowhere to go but up.”

Coach Kris Harding on Munns:  “She shows leadership on and off the court.  There’s a reason why she’s good; she puts the extra hours in.  she’s encouraging and pushes the team.  She has a strong presence in the key offensively.  She has a great hook and drop step.  If people triple or double down on her she does a good job seeing the floor.”

After high school:  “Right now I’m leaning toward majoring in sports medicine. 

At the University of Utah I’ve been told that I need to come in and step up right away.”
