Boulder is buzzing right now with the spring football game set for Saturday, but the Colorado women’s basketball team got an early present as well on Friday with Michigan transfer Maddie Nolan committing to the Buffs.
The 5-foot-11 guard has spent the last two seasons as a starter with the Wolverines and set career-highs in average points (9.1), assists (2.0) and minutes played (32.7) last season. Michigan made the NCAA Tournament last season and, like the Buffs, was eliminated by Iowa.
A native of Zionsville, Indiana, the fifth-year senior will give CU another weapon from behind the 3-point line, as her 34.2% mark from deep would have been second on the team last year behind only Frida Formann’s 39.3%.
Nolan now becomes a favorite to replace departing senior Tayanna Jones in the starting lineup.
