Aaliyah, Arianna Roberson creating own paths at Clark (San Antonio Express-News, 2/13/2022)
“If anybody gets beat on our team, they know to let it go because there’s always Arianna in the paint to swat it away,” Aaliyah said.
Arianna confidently relishes that role, saying, “I look at it like, ‘That’s my area. That’s my home. If you come into it, I’m swatting you out of here. If you get your shot off me, then good job.’”
Arianna’s confidence is no surprise to Aaliyah. It’s enabled her sister to quickly adjust to varsity.
“The pressure, I feel like she’s taken it and embraced it,” Aaliyah said. “Most people would crack under all that type of pressure. She has to guard the best post player, the biggest person on the court who is probably the biggest factor on the other team. She’s done a great job.”
