As a four-year starter for the Eau Clair North basketball team, Hannah Quilling, quickly became known around Wisconsin for her athletic abilities. In high school alone she scored more than 1,000 career points as a prep. When she was only a freshman, she was named an all-conference honoree and was also able to receive this award again when she was a sophomore. She was recognized again her Junior and Senior year as Conference player of the year. This award was much deserved after averaging 14.7 points and 5 assists per game while shooting 44 percent from the three point line her Senior year alone. These stats as well as her hard work in the class room lead to her receiving North’s Scholar-athlete of the year award as a senior.
