Each weekday, ESPN RISE brings you five vital stats from athletes across the country.
Shaker Heights (Cleveland) senior Karisma Penn is coming off a monster junior campaign in which she led the Lady Raiders in scoring (19.4), rebounding (12.3) and blocks (3.2) and earned Player of the Year honors in the Lake Erie League. She enters the season ranked No. 18 on the ESPNU HoopGurlz 100 and is rated the third-best forward overall. She takes time away from her offseason regiment to yak about her favorite tunes.
