  • Summary

  • Nora Francois envisioned herself as a Division I basketball athlete the moment she took up the sport, but the quest to complete her mission brought a deluge of detours and dichotomies.

    On one side, Nora was a rising bastion of versatility, becoming the first DeLaSalle player in school history to make varsity as an eighth grader. She later played a central role in DeLaSalle's state championship run in 2019. On the other side, Nora encountered a series of mental health battles and traumatic moments that chipped away at her morale, leading her to transfer schools several times as a junior and senior.

    Refusing to let go of her basketball dream, Nora enrolled at North Iowa Area in her college freshman season, which led to a spot in the Southland Conference at New Orleans the following year. Her numbers were modest, but she did earn the first double-double of her collegiate career. Nora sees basketball as a tool to build her career ambitions, and she discusses all the tools that strengthened her resolve with basketball and mental health.
