Olivia Rizzo was a four-year letterman in basketball and a one-year letter-winner in softball at Penn Trafford High School. Rizzo, selected as her team’s most valuable player in 2011-12, averaged 8.1 points per game and shot 76% from the free-throw line as a senior. She was also named to the 2011 Lady Spartan Holiday Tournament All-Tournament Team.
Rizzo, a two-year team captain, guided Penn Trafford to back-to-back WPIAL Section I Championships, the program’s first and second section titles since 1974. Rizzo also helped the Lady Warriors to four straight trips to the post-season, including a spot in the PIAA AAAA State Playoffs in 2011.
She was coached by John Giannikas at Penn Trafford High School.
