The Wichita State women’s basketball team is young this year, which means it’s up to upperclassmen like Maya Brewer to lead them to victory. Brewer is a transfer student from State Fair Community College, where she led the team in scoring and managed more than five rebounds per game.
The switch from the Missouri Community College Athletic Conference to the American Athletic Conference doesn’t faze Brewer. Not even squaring off against Geno Auriemma’s legendary UConn squad.
“It’s nothing to be starstruck about,” Brewer said. “I’m going to take it like any other game.”
In spite of her newness to WSU, Brewer’s confidence and experience should pay off this year.
