When Maud Huijbens transferred from Syracuse to Gonzaga, there was always going to be a year of waiting in the process. Such is the case with the Gonzaga Bulldogs basketball program.
Head coach Lisa Fortier loves to run a deep bench, but benches can only run so deep. This season, with senior starters Anamaria Virjoghe, Melody Kempton, and Abby O’Connor in the rotation, Huijbens had to compete with Eliza Hollingsworth and Yvonne Ejim for the remaining minutes.
She got her few, occasionally, throughout the season, averaging 6.2 minutes in 21 games. Next year, that should look a bit differently.
