22-year-old Birmingham native, Alexus Dye, had a dream to be the best.

Dye transformed from a middle schooler who barely touched a basketball to one of the premier college basketball players in the country.

Dye is averaging over 15 points and 12 and a half rebounds in her senior season and leads the entire nation in double-doubles.

She is working toward getting her team another Sun Belt Championship but is no stranger to winning titles.  Dye spent her 2019 season helping win an NJC National Championship for Gulf Coast State College before coming to Troy.
