“I’m extremely excited for Anna,” recently named MCC women’s basketball coach Brandon Pritchett said. “She has worked so hard to get to where she is at today. Benedictine is a great fit for her both academically and athletically, and that’s what it’s all about.”

The 5-6 guard from Reus High School in Reus, Spain played in 31 games this season for the Lady Indians and averaged 11 points, 5.1 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game.

Her 342 points ranked 10th among all Region IX players. She shot 36.5 percent from the field and 32.9 percent from the 3-point line (also ranked 10th in the region).

Her 121 defensive rebounds were seventh most among the region leaders. Her 95 assists were third most and her 51 steals were fourth most in the region.

At the end of the season she was named to the Nebraska Community College all-conference team.
