Dressler family bonds over basketball

COLUMBIA — Hannah Dressler’s first memory about playing basketball involves her whole family. Beginning when she was just 5 years old, she and her older brother and sister would lay down head-to-toe on their backs on their living room floor. One by one, each child would try to shoot the ball backward so the person behind them could catch it.  At the end of the line, they would switch direction and shoot the ball forward. They did this back and forth over and over again throughout their childhood.
