“Hannah is someone we started recruiting this spring and we hope she will provide us much needed depth at the post position,” said Marauders head coach Rick Neumann. “Considering we only return one true post player that saw minutes last season Hannah will have a great chance to contribute right away. She is a very good athlete and has nice touch out to 15 feet. Her size and athleticism will really add to our roster.”
“After going through the exhausting recruiting process, I have decided to commit to University of Mary in North Dakota. Blessed and thankful for the scholarship & the people that helped me get it!” She announced on her Facebook account.
