NEW YORK (PIX11) -- For every great team, it's essential to have one player you can always rely on in the big moments. That player is just a sophomore for the Christ the King girls basketball team. Meet 6'4 center Olivia Vukosa, who is all about the team.
Vo: that unselfishness and dominating athleticism gained Vukosa recognition as a freshman starter for the Royals. In her sophomore year, Big O only got better, earning her the distinction of being the number two player nationally in her class and her team leader.
