Former Norfolk State women's basketball forward Marian Brooks has accepted the Victory Scholarship through the Sport Changes Life Foundation (SCL) to study in Ireland for the 2013-14 academic year.
Brooks will spend the school year studying business, with a concentration in sports, at the University of Limerick located in Limerick, Ireland. While there, she will also coach basketball and coordinate a reading program for local youth.
Having graduated in the spring with a journalism degree, Brooks was a four-year letter winner on the Spartan basketball team. Her senior season in 2012-13 was cut short after six games due to injury. Nevertheless, she finished her playing career with 458 points and 373 rebounds in 90 games in a little over three years.
Brooks will depart from the United States in August.
