Freshman forward Chardonae Fuqua’ brings an athletic edge to the already loaded Baylor squad. A native of Birmingham, Ala., Fuqua’ excelled in track and field, winning three state championships in the high jump, as well as leading her basketball squad to two state championships.
She chose Baylor over LSU and Georgia because of its friendly atmosphere and the dedicated basketball program.
After bringing home major national awards last season one after the other, senior post Brittney Griner is back in the green and gold for her final season as a Lady Bear. Averaging 23.2 points, 7.8 rebounds and 5.2 blocks a game, Griner has both dominated and changed the game of women’s basketball. Even though Griner is a force of nature on the hardwood, she doesn’t stop improving her game.

“I got to play some combinations and situations,” head coach Kim Mulkey said. “I expected everything that I saw but it was just good to have it in a game setting. I thought first of all, the freshmen did fine. I think conditioning for several of them is obvious. They’ve got to learn to play longer stretches, but that’s being a freshman and having to play at an intense level at both ends of the floor.”
