Background on Tiya Misir:
Tiya Misir is a high-performing player on the Toronto Metropolitan Women’s basketball team who also played Division 1 basketball at Long Island University for 2 years. Being an undersized female athlete at 5 '2'' and one of West-Indian descent, Tiya continues to break barriers for the next generation of female athletes.
