When graduate guard Aliyah Matharu joined Baylor women’s basketball as a mid-year transfer in the fall, she not only accomplished a long-time goal of joining the Bears but also settled in with her team and the community, leaving her with a feeling of unity.
“They’ve always been a top program, especially in women’s basketball,” Matharu said. “So ultimately, when I entered the portal, I kind of already knew where I wanted to go. Which is crazy, but I actually watched a lot of Baylor women’s basketball last year.”
Matharu was first drawn to Baylor for the style of play and ability to defend every position from guard to center.
