It's been quite the ride for Toby Fournier of late, but one she continues to have tunnel vision through. The 17-year-old Toronto native committed to Duke University on Wednesday.

After celebrating with family over dinner that night, ESPN's 13th-ranked 2024 basketball prospect is now in Edmonton for senior women's national team camp, with eyes on competing for Canada at the 2024 Olympics in Paris. "I just stick to my goals and what I've wanted for a long time.

The Olympics has really been a dream for me for a lot of my life," Fournier told The Canadian Press. "So I feel like just knowing where I want to go and what I need to do and what next steps I need to take to get into that position and to set myself up for the Olympics.

The training camp, in addition to an exhibition game against Japan in Victoria on June 2, is the first phase of preparation leading into the FIBA Women's AmeriCup in Mexico from July 1-9.
