The women’s basketball program made its first transfer portal addition with the commitment of ex-Sacramento State wing Katie Peneueta. Peneueta brings an impressive track record as a jump shooter to NC State.
In two seasons with Sacramento State, she shot 45.8% from beyond the arc, and that was in 277 attempts—so not exactly a fluke. Jump shooting is her calling card, as she is on the extreme end of the three-point specialist spectrum: she’s attempted a grand total of 24 two-pointers over the last two seasons (making half of them).
That’s a unique split, especially for a player listed at 6’2, but clearly she’s been allocating her shot attempts wisely.
