Our friends over at GoFrogs.com were gracious enough to work with us so you, the fan, can get to know your Women's Basketball Team. We wanted to get to know our players on a deeper, more personal level. We hope you enjoy and maybe you will find your new favorite player on the Frogs.

First were the Seniors, guard Jada Butts and center Carol Willie followed by Juniors guards AJ Alix and Toree Thompson and forward Sydney Coleman. Now we're on to the Sophomore's Amy Okonkwo, Jordan Moore and now Ola Akomolafe.
