The Tiger standout finished up her outstanding career this past season, earning Second Team All-ACC honors and All-Defensive team honors after finishing third in the nation at 3.6 steals per game.

In addition to her strong inside game, Hardy developed a reliable three-point shot, finishing her career seventh on the all-time makes list. She will become the first Lady Tiger to work out for a WNBA team since Lakeia Stokes in 2004.
