Top 50 recruit will play for head coach Tara VanDerveer at Stanford.

Francesca Belibi of Regis Jesuit (Aurora, Colo.) first garnered national attention a little over a year ago when she pulled off an in-game dunk while just 15-years old.

She made headlines again Monday by making a verbal commitment to women's basketball powerhouse Stanford.
Belibi is regarded as a Top 50 recruit in the Class of 2019 by HoopGurlz. The 6-foot-1 forward averaged 13.7 points and 8.3 rebounds per game as a junior at Regis Jesuit, helping the Raiders go 24-4 and reach the Class 5A state championship game.
Francesca Belibi looks to drive to the basket during Colorado's Class 5A semifinals in March.
