Lawrenceville basketball standout Brianna Cummings has decided where she will play college ball.

The 5'10" guard at Greater Atlanta Christian SchoolΒ in NorcrossΒ recently signed papers to playΒ for George Washington University next winter.

"Brianna is a very long and skilled wing player that can change the game in many ways," said GWU JonathanΒ Coach Tsipis in a release. "She is an outstanding slasher from the perimeter that attacks the basket. She can also guard four different positions on the floor. She is a tireless defender and has the ability to attack in transition. Brianna has shown that she is a proven winner during her time at both Greater Atlanta Christian High School and the Georgia Pistols."

Cummings averaged 18.5 points and 9.0 rebounds per game in her junior year where she receivedΒ All-County First Team and All-Metro Second Team honors. She is also ranked 25th in the nation in her position byΒ ESPN HoopGurlz.
