Australian guard Tara Manumaleuga commits to Arizona

When Adia Barnes took over the Arizona Wildcats women’s basketball program, she said she was willing to recruit anywhere.

She really meant it.

The Wildcats landed their third 2019 commitment Tuesday and it is yet another international prospect in the form of Australian point guard Tara Manumaleuga, who joins Latvian guard Mara Mote and Icelandic forward Birna Benonysdottir as future Wildcats.

Manumaleuga’s commitment was first reported by Keli Moore, and I can confirm it as well.

While Manumaleuga is Australian, her father is from New Zealand so she plays for the New Zealand U17 national team.
