Fletcher, a 5-foot-5 guard from Utica, Ohio, will return closer to home after playing at NCAA Division I Longwood (Va.) University as a freshman where she averaged 8.4 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.8 assists while starting 26 of the team’s 29 games. She nailed 42 three-pointers and shot 75.9 percent from the free throw line while leading the team in scoring in six games. As a four-year standout at Utica High School, she finished with over 1,000 career points. She was named the Mid-Buckeye Conference Player of the Year, the District 11 Division II Player of the Year, and the Mount Vernon News Area Player of the Year as a senior after averaging 17 points and 4.5 assists as she also earned All-Ohio Honorable Mention status.

"We are very pleased with the addition of Sierra to our team,” said MVNU coach Steve Gregory. "She is a local kid who gained a year of experience at the Division I level. She wanted to move back and be closer to home, and we could not be more thrilled with her decision.”

"Sierra played both the point and shooting guard positions at Longwood,” Gregory continued. "We have an obvious hole in our lineup at the point guard spot with the graduation of Rachel Fiely. Sierra had a great career at Utica and was a kid who we recruited until she made the decision to attend Longwood. She picked up a lot of valuable game experience at the college level and that should be a tremendous benefit both for her and for us. We hope the transition will be a smooth one for her. She will have a lot to learn within our systems of play, but I have a lot of confidence that she will adjust quickly.”

"Sierra is quick, has very good ball-handling skills, can shoot the three, drive to the basket, and prides herself on being a good defender,” said Gregory. "She is also a very good distributor as she proved throughout her high school career. I have heard a lot about her work ethic and I have gotten to see that during this process with her transferring. She has shown great character on and off the basketball court. While having a very good rookie campaign at Longwood, she also maintained well over a 3.0 grade point average. I look forward to getting to work with her and helping her reach her full potential athletically, academically, and spiritually.”

In addition to playing basketball at Utica, she also played volleyball and was a member of the track team. She also played for the nationally-ranked All-Ohio Black AAU basketball team.

MVNU finished the 2008-2009 season with a 27-9 overall record - the best in school history - as the Lady Cougars captured their third National Christian College Athletic Association national title and also finished as the American Mideast Conference Tournament runner-up.
