Former Wisconsin women’s basketball guard Maty Wilke announced Tuesday that she has committed to the University of Utah out of the transfer portal. Wilke will leave Wisconsin after two seasons, with 2022 being her first one as an active member following an ACL injury in high school.
The 5-foot-10 guard averaged 11.8 points per game this season while producing a team-high 61 made three-pointers over 29 contests. After being a highly sought after recruit from Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, Wilke proved to be a rising star with the Badgers, who went 11-20 this year.
She will now transition over to a Utah program that went 27-5 in the regular season and was a two-seed in the NCAA Tournament, losing in the Sweet 16 to the eventual champion LSU Tigers 66-63.
If Wilke is in search of more team success on the court, the move to Utah will certainly fulfill that. Her contributions to the women’s program in Madison will not be forgotten as she came in with head coach Marisa Moseley in 2021, helping bring more attention to the women’s team this past season.
Go Utes!!!!!!!
