UA women make presence felt in recruiting

University of Arkansas women’s basketball Coach Mike Neighbors has some help in recruiting one of the nation’s top 2022 prospects thanks to two current Razorbacks and a future one.

ESPN 4-star guard Ysabella Fontleroy is friends with Arkansas freshman forward Maryam Dauda and freshman guard Jersey Wolfenbarger along with 2022 guard commitment Karley Johnson.

All three are in Fontleroy’s ear about becoming a Razorback. She and Dauda were teammates for four years while playing for the Missouri Phenom spring and summer program.

Fontleroy was also teammates with Wolfenbarger while playing for Missouri Phenom and for Willpower, a youth team coached by Fontleroy’s father Will.
