Whether making shots or stopping shots, Friday was spectacular. Friday was a Post-Gazette Fabulous 5 selection as a basketball player at Upper St. Clair, and All-Area pick as a goalkeeper in soccer. Friday was instrumental in helping her team win the State 4A basketball Championship and WPIAL soccer Championship. She averaged 21 points and 16 rebounds as a senior basketball player and had 17 shutouts in 26 games for the Upper St. Clair soccer team. She had 31 points and 26 rebounds in one state playoff basketball game and did not allow a goal in four WPIAL playoff soccer games. She was the P-G Athlete of the Year in 1999 and went on to have an outstanding basketball career at Duquesne University where she is the only player to have more than 1,000 career points and 1,000 career rebounds. She is also one of only two Duquesne women’s’ players to have their number retired.
