SHERER By Blake Morgan Daily Journal TUPELO – A dream will be realized today in the Tupelo gymnasium at 11 a.m. The years of hard work will pay off for Alayjah Sherer when she signs her letter of intent to play basketball at the East Tennessee State University next season. The senior has been working towards this moment since she was in the sixth grade. The 5-foot-11 senior was a contributor on for the Lady Wave since she was a freshman but began to dominate last season. Tupelo had a solid 2015-16 season going 21-9 as Sherer averaged 20.7 points, 7.2 rebounds and 2.8 steals per game as a junior. “Getting to the goal is what I’m probably best at on the floor,” Sherer said.
