HIGH SCHOOL AND PERSONAL

Head Coach Robin Stephenson on Koenig: "We are thrilled that McKenna has decided to do her fifth year with us. She is a person and a player that will bring a wealth of experience and knowledge to us from playing in our same conference against the top teams in the country. It was very apparent throughout the process that McKenna is the right fit for our program and that our program is the right fit for her. Our visions for the next year lined up with where she wants to go with her game and how much team culture matters to her. She has so much room to grow and improve and I am beyond excited to get to spend a year with her and help her on her journey and see what we can accomplish together."
