Following her two years at Glenlawn, Greaves transferred to the National Basketball Powerhouse, Oak Hill Academy, in Virginia, USA.

What others are saying about Taneesha:
"I had the honor of coaching Taneesha in high School and have seen her grow into the great young woman she is today. Taneesha has a positive energy about her that always makes those around her better. Not only is she a great athlete and coach, but she is a great person also.
I am honored to have been able to see her grow into the person she is today and she is making such a positive impact on people's lives."
Bryan Meagher
Assistant Coach
Oak Hill Academy Men's Basketball
"'I've known Taneesha since 2010 and during that time I've seen her progress from a high school basketball standout to a division 1 basketball player and now a basketball coach.
What stands out to me most about Taneesha is her unbelievable work ethic and her passion for making others around her better. What separates Taneesha from other coaches is her relentless thirst for knowledge and her ability to inspire others around her to fight to become the best they can be.
If I had a daughter, I would most certainly want Taneesha to be her coach, friend and mentor. I give Coach Greaves my highest recommendation."
