It's awesome she gets to play again. Hoping the best for her "Senior" year. Really looking forward to the upcoming season!

Did she play BB somewhere else after she left the LG? Very pleased for her return, liked her BB and saw that with some extra work on fundamentals, and better coaching had the makings for an excellent all around player. To me she was really the canary in the coal mine, when players began to leave, or were becoming disenchanted.

She stayed at UM and completed her degree. She will now work on a Master's in Public Administration.
 
No no no, this can’t be. Last I heard our new coach gets rid of all the players and would certainly not welcome one back. Especially one the caliber of Fatkin who gives them an instant boost. This just cannot be. :)

The program continues its downward spiral…

I'm assuming (hoping) you are being sarcastic?

My recollection of this player was good athleticism and skill level....but for some weird reason losing time to Jordyn Schweyen.

That's unfortunate. :( Gives more insight about the whole situation and 18 (?) players leaving during that tenure.

I wonder if she could apply for another year of eligibility because of hardship...

Great news! I am excited for the Holsinger era to begin. It took two hard flushes of the toilet to get this program back to some semblance of normalcy. Unfortunately some players and coaches were victims of the double flush that the administration had to do to clean the program up and get it back to the top of the Big Sky and one of the better mid major programs in the West.
