Abby O’Connor took a leap of faith when decided to transfer to Gonzaga in the spring of 2020 despite never having the opportunity to visit campus while the world was shut down in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The versatile wing brought her hard-working game to Spokane and fit right in within her new program.
