LYNCHBURG, Va. – Talented Liberty Christian Academy center Emmy Stout will remain in town for her collegiate career, signing a national letter of intent to attend Liberty University for the 2024-25 academic year.
Stout will join high school teammate Avery Mills on the 2024-25 Lady Flames roster, as the LCA guard signed her national letter of intent on Wednesday.
"I have no doubt that Liberty and the Lady Flames program are gaining tremendous young ladies of high integrity and strong faith who will be great Champions for Christ during their time at LU and beyond," stated Liberty Christian Academy Girls' Basketball Head Coach Heather Stephens. "It has been an honor to work with these ladies the past two years and they will be greatly missed!"
