The 6-3 forward was a second team all-Central Conference player for the Titans who went to the Elite Eight of the NJCAA Division I National Championship Tournament. She averaged 5.6 points and 5.5 rebounds in 31 games. A native of Setubal, Portugal, she scored in double figures six times, with a season-high 12 coming on two occasions.
