Hines has been a four-year student-athlete for Shawnee Mission South High School in Overland Park, Kan.
"I have quite a few family members that attended CMU, so I was so excited to get the opportunity to carry that tradition on and play basketball," Hines said. "This is a program that has some really good opportunities in the next couple years, and it would have been hard to pass up being a part of it."
Arnold admits Hines had been on his radar for quite some time and expects immediate contributions from the guard that can also play small forward.
"Allison�will give us tremendous flexibility," the third-year Eagles' coach said. "She is a long guard who can slide down and play some stretch four if we want to go small. Allison is a deceivingly good athlete who has the ability to score in bunches and can defend multiple positions."
