NKU announced its fifth head coach in the storied history of the program when Camryn Whitaker was selected on May 6. Whitaker took the helm after spending time with national-ranked programs at Kentucky and Dayton, and appointed Kayla Bowlin, Josh Carrier and Matt Stine to her staff as assistant coaches.
The Norse return a Horizon League All-Freshman selection in Molly Glick as well as HL All-Tournament honoree Kasey Uetrecht in the upcoming season. Glick started in 30 games during her rookie campaign, averaging 6.6 points and 2.7 rebounds per game.
Uetrecht, a junior this season, was the second-leading scorer for the Norse in the 2015-16 season, putting up 11.8 points per game while pulling down a team-high 5.7 rebounds a contest.
NKU’s roster features three true freshmen in Hannah Clark, Hayley Combs and Laura Thomas. Redshirt-freshman Taryn Taugher will also be making her first appearance in the Gold and Black this year after sitting out the 2015-16 season.
