Gracie Butler '26 Recruiting Profile

As a two-year varsity starter for the Tennessee Class AAA State Runner-up, Upperman Lady Bees, I have had the opportunity to develop my knowledge of the game as well as my skills on the court under the guidance of a head coach with 30 years of coaching experience.  I have demonstrated a strong work ethic, an ability to perform under pressure and the leadership needed to be successful on and off of the court.  I averaged 14.3 ppg and 3.7 rebounds per game in the 2024 TSSAA State Tournament and was selected to the all-tournament team for District 7-AAA and the TSSAA state tournament.

Off of the court, I am one of ten children including a twin sister who is also a basketball player at Upperman.  My parents have always instilled the importance of academics in myself and my siblings and I strive to do my best in the classroom and currently hold a 3.6 gpa.  I am looking for a college environment where I can continue to pursue my love for basketball while obtaining a degree that will allow me to pursue a career in the medical field.  I know that I can be an asset to the school that provides me with that opportunity and look forward to forming a relationship with a team and coaching staff that will enable me to achieve my athletic goals and support me in my academic pursuits.
