Hagood's father, Rick, is the boys' head basketball coach at Pocahontas. That is the school where Hagood left her mark and ASU recruited her to play for the Tribe. Hagood said being close to home has its advantages. She feels her hometown supports her because many people come to watch the Indians play, she said. Hagood said winning the Sun Belt Conference would be great, but she has a loftier goal.
Chemistry plays a huge role in developing a winning basketball team.
Hagood said the Lady Indians are closer now as teammates then ever before. And it shows in the victory column. Hopefully we will keep getting closer as teammates and friends. Hagood said she does not look up to anyone in particular. But it's probably a safe bet that some people look up to Julie Hagood.
