Jasmine Nwajei, the nation's leading scorer last season, plans to transfer to Syracuse, she told Scout's Mike McAllister. Nwajei verbally committed during an on-campus visit she took this weekend.

Nwajei told McAllister she "loves" the coaching staff and believes head coach Quentin Hillsman will help develop her game.

"Coach Q, Tammi Reiss, Ced [Cedric Solice], they're all great people," Nwajei said. "I know that Coach Q will push me to the level that I want to take my game to."

Nwajei, who announced her plans to transfer from Wagner College in March, is one of the most prolific scorers in women's college basketball.
