This is seriously awesome and a really big deal.

Our daughter played NAIA, had a full ride. It was serious competition (I’d equal it to an NCAA d2) . She had a lot of international teammates…overall good experience.

I‘m betting it was the Ames weather.
Jordao now has someone on the team to speak Portuguese with.
Just one. Given that she's NAIA, I'm not sure how the extra COVID year gets handled, but she was an injury redshirt that season so it doesn't matter.
I am guessing she watched the Ames video and wants some first rate water
That actually might have been a positive for her. Nice to speak your native tongue daily.
Nice addition, we definitely need the help in the paint. Can't teach 6-6 height. Looks to have some good athleticism, hopefully she adjusts to Big 12 play and fills a need.
Dang....this just gave us a lane presence. something that we struggle with when playing Baylor, Texas, etc.
Interesting story! I look forward to watching her play and fills a need for size inside.
Growing up in Brazil with a Brazilian father and an American mother I wonder how much Portugese and how much English she spoke day to day.
