Why does a player choose a school? These days it could be for reasons ranging from their major to how much they think they can make via name, image, and likeness deals. For Arizona women’s basketball, the central reason for most players has been the same for the past several years—head coach Adia Barnes. It was no different for the six players who joined the Wildcats this fall.
Arizona welcomed three freshmen and three transfers this school year. Aaronette Vonleh, Anna Gret Así, and Gisela Sanchez enter their first year of college ball. Madi Conner, a fourth member of the freshman class, enrolled early last January.
