Faith Franklin didn't know much about Vanderbilt University until a few months ago.

The high school senior from Harlingen (TX) has lived her entire life in Texas. She grew up in the Dallas area before moving in the sixth grade to Harlingen, near the Mexico border and the Gulf of Mexico.

Vanderbilt is in Nashville, Tennessee, more than 1,100 miles from Franklin's hometown.

Still, when the Vanderbilt coaches asked Franklin to visit the school, she figured it was worth a trip. And it turned into a smart decision, as Franklin liked the University so much that she signed with the Commodores last month.

She chose Vanderbilt over numerous schools, including Nebraska, Baylor, Arizona State, Kentucky, Baylor, Clemson and Texas A&M.
