Shelley, a 5-4 guard, is set to join the Nanooks as a freshman after graduating from Colony High School in Palmer, Alaska.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re thrilled to welcome Ally to the Nanook family,&#8221; said head coach Michael Ricks. &#8220;She&#8217;s a tough, versatile player who will bring energy on both ends of the floor. As the first player to commit after I was hired, she&#8217;s helped kick off an exciting new chapter for our program. Coming off a state championship at Colony High School, she knows what it takes to win and will be a great fit for our style of play.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Shelley averaged 6.5 points per game during her time at Colony High School. She shot 61.4% from two, 26.6% from beyond the arc and 66.7% from the line.
