Camree Clegg, 17, is excited
about her full-ride women's bas-
ketball scholarship to Clemson
University inSouthCarolina.
“Super-excited,” the Wayne
Memorial High School senior
said. “They just had everything I
wanted in a school. I have a lot of
family down South so it was a
perfect fit.”
The Westland resident was
also a Miss Basketball finalist
this year, and she and her team
reached Class A state semifinals
in a March 16 loss to East
Lansing.
“We just came up a game
short. I don't see it as a disap-
pointment,” she said. “I say it
was a great experience.”
Coach Jarvis Mitchell, in his
fourth year at Wayne Memorial,
noted, “She's worked so hard.
She had to do a lot. We're very,
very proud.”
She is the only graduating
senior on the team this year, so
prospects are good for theWayne
squad next year. “We've got some
kids coming back that are famil-
iar with the program,” Mitchell
said.
Clegg transferred from sports
powerhouse Detroit Country
Day, and said the decision was
difficult in part due to academics
andher parents' concerns.
“At first, it was hard but it
ended up paying off in the end,”
she said. Her coach noted the
long drive to Country Day, “those
things collectively played a part
in her coming back to her home
school,” he said.
She's roughly 5-foot-5,
although Mitchell said with a
smile he's added some height
when talking about Clegg with
college recruiters. She boasts a
4.5 grade point average, and had
scholarship offers from about 14
schools.
The point guard was easy to
coach, Mitchell said, and he sees
God's hand in her coming to
Wayne Memorial. “That was like
air for me,” he said. “Oh,
absolutely, oh, my God. I was so
blessed. An absolute blessing.”
She's been a help to younger
teammates both on and off the
court. “She was always giving
them words of encouragement,”
Mitchell said.
Clegg will study sports com-
munication at Clemson, with
plans to become a sports journal-
ist or analyst.
First, she hopes to play over-
seas or in the professional
women's basketball league.
“That's definitely my plan A,”
she said. When the Detroit
Shock played locally, Clegg said
she admired Swin Cash and the
team, “especially because it was
the hometown team.”
Of her height, she said, “I just
kind of worked my game around
it.” She noted that Detroit
Pistons' Isiah Thomas and Spud
Webb of theNBAwere shorter.
She likes the play of the NBA
player Chris Paul and the
Womens' National Basketball
Association starDianaTaurasi.
“I'm just going to continue
working on my game,” said
Clegg, who reports to Clemson in
June.
“It'll be all working out and
getting faster and stronger.”
Her coach coined a “Godzilla”
type nickname for her of “The
Beast That Swallowed Tokyo,”
with his team finishing the sea-
son at 22-5.
“We tried to add a little spice
to it,” he said of the nickname.
“Just add a little spin to it, to the
nickname.”
Clegg had helped Country
Day win the 2014-15 Class B state
championship. She visited the
Clemson campus and liked it.
Her coach said her work ethic
will help with the Womens'
National Basketball Association.
“It's tough,” Mitchell said. “I'm
hoping she makes it. It was just
an extraordinary pleasure
coaching her.”
He added of the transfer,
“Never a hiccup. It just was this
rare synergy that I think made
the programsuccessful.”
Westland Click and Fix, a free
citizen reporting tool, has under-
gone amajor upgrade.
The phone application allows
Westland residents to communi-
cate directly with city hall to
report quality of life issues like
potholes, graffiti, illegal dumping,
blight, andmuchmore.
With Westland Click and Fix,
Westland citizens have been able
to easily report issues on the go,
receive real time updates on the
progress on fixing them, and con-
nect to the city social media plat-
form. With the upgrades, report-
ing issues will be even faster and
easier forWestland citizens.
The new version of the
Westland Click andFix includes a
fresh new design, smarter archi-
tecture, and several new critical
features. Highlights of the new
version include quick navigation,
a new reporting flow, issue map-
ping and list, better on-boarding,
a new place tab, and more shar-
ing.
These updates will engage
more citizens as well as make the
communication between resi-
dents and city hall easier and
more efficient and transparent.
TheCity ofWestland is committed
to open government and hopes to
add additional value to that
through the use of this app. offi-
cials said.

SeeClickFix iOSapp include:

ciently at the bottomof the screen

R. Wild. “This free app has been
very well received and a lot of the
updates came from suggestions
fromour users.”
