She ranked 12th in the league in scoring and seventh in rebounding a year ago, recorded seven double-doubles, and scored in double figures 24 times.
  • Boise State returned its top-four scorers from the 2024-25 season. Tatum Thompson (13.6 points per game), Natalie Pasco (12.5), Dani Bayes (9.1), and Mya Hansen (7.8) combined for 59.9 percent of the Broncos' points last season.
