Franklin High School alum Katia Gallegos set to transfer to Tulsa from UTEP

Katia Gallegos is heading to Tulsa.

The former Franklin High and UTEP star, who entered the transfer portal earlier this month after three all-conference seasons at UTEP, announced her decision on Instagram Sunday evening by posting a picture of herself in a Tulsa No. 0 jersey with the headline “COMMITTED”.

Gallegos was the face and voice of the UTEP women’s basketball program the last three years, earning first-team All-Conference USA honors in 2021 and second-team honors this year. She was on the all-freshman team in 2020 a year after being named the El Paso Times high school player of the year for a second straight season.
