Kim Barnes Arico, the Michigan women’s basketball coach, announced that Abby Cole will join the basketball team after the volleyball season. The 6-foot-5 athlete will fashion the No. 32 jersey.
"I saw Abby play basketball in high school when I first got the job at Michigan and was blown away with her ability to impact the game on the defensive end," Barnes Arico said. "The other team could barely get a shot off around the basket. Her length is incredible, and she moves so well for her size. She is an elite-level athlete who will bring another dimension to our team.
