    Octavia Blue on Fields…
    "Adding another top prospect from Georgia to the roster gives us the home cooking we strive to have here at KSU WBB.  Kailyn is an     explosive, athletic guard with a quick first step. She has both the ability to get to the rim at will and shoot the three. She fits right into our     up-tempo style of play. We are excited to have her on board."
 
    Prep Hoops Georgia High School Scout Kyle Sandy on Fields…
    "Kailyn has a high upside. She's young for her grade and has been a coveted prospect since early on in her high school career. Fields is     a playmaker that looks to get teammates involved. She's an impactful defender with her lateral quickness."
