Gonzaga WBB Brings In Jocelyn Medina, Continues to Strengthen Guard Depth
The frontcourt was the story for Gonzaga women’s basketball last season. From redshirt freshman Lauren Whittaker winning WCC Player of the Year to true freshman Jaiden Haile taking home the conference’s Sixth Woman of the Year, the Zags’ forwards garnered plenty of attention during the team’s 24-win campaign, where they made it back to the NCAA tournament after missing it the season prior.
But after the graduation of starting point guard Inês Bettencourt and the transfer of Paige Lofing, GU continues to restock its backcourt personnel for next year. The program recently announced the addition of Jocelyn Medina, a 5-6 senior from the University of Denver, who joins Emmy Roach as the Bulldogs’ lone transfers so far this offseason – both of them listed as guards.
The move to Spokane for Medina will be her fourth stop in four seasons, as the experienced Arbuckle, California native has played in a variety of roles throughout her collegiate career.
