Wow. Freaking awesome.

Could she realistically become a dual sport athlete in Tucson?

It will be tough to split time between volleyball and basketball. She will likely have to play the full season in volleyball and transition to basketball when the season is over.  I suspect in the off season she will mostly train with the basketball team although she would have to sprinkle in some volleyball training.

She may opt to do 100% of one sport (probably basketball) at some point depending on how things go.

Note that she is recovering from a torn ACL so will miss her senior season in both sports.  Still a great get for both programs.
