Sharnee Zoll-Norman (born July 11, 1986) is an American former professional basketball player. Zoll-Norman played throughout Europe and most recently with the Chicago Sky of the WNBA.

Personal

Zoll was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to Cheryl and Tony Zoll. She is the only child of Cheryl and shares her father with brother Chris and Dustin Myers. Cheryl is a retired veteran of the Armed Forces. She lived on McGuire Air Force Base for the majority of her life and also resided in Sembach, Germany while her mother was stationed there. Zoll moved to Marlboro Township, New Jersey before her freshman year to attend Marlboro High School, a school her mother chose for the quality of both its academics and basketball.[1] She attended Marlboro for her first three high school years before transferring to Highland Regional High School in the Blackwood section of Gloucester Township, New Jersey for her senior year.[2] Although she has mentioned her wife Serita Norman in previous interviews, she never formally came out until a June 2013 interview with the Windy City Times, stating "If I was straight, I wouldn't have to come out and say that I was straight. So I've never had an official coming-out, or something where I felt I had to announce that I was gay. But everyone knows. I wear my wedding ring proudly; I have matching tattoos with my wife, and also have her name tattooed on me. We go a lot of places [together] and I surely don't hide it [that she's my wife]."[3]

College career

Zoll played at the University of Virginia from 2004 to 2008,[4] where she was a 1000-point scorer and two-time All-ACC third team honoree. She is most widely known for holding the Atlantic Coast Conference assist record with 785 assists;[5] previously held by Dawn Staley, also a UVA alum. Sharnee is the only woman in ACC history to post three seasons of at least 200 assists and did so in succession from 2006 to 2008. In the summer of 2005, Zoll was named to the gold medal-winning USA U19 World Championship Team.[6]

We came here not only for basketball but for academics, too, Cheryl Zoll, Sharnee's mother, said.... Sharnee Zoll's family was the other to move.
