DAVIS, Calif. – Head Coach
Jennifer Gross has announced the signing of forward Ally Fitzgerald, a transfer from the University of Colorado. Fitzgerald will enroll at UC Davis as a sophomore with three years of eligibility.
Originally from Ballwin, Mo., Fitzgerald spent her freshman year at Colorado where she appeared in seven contests during her first collegiate season.
"We are so excited to add Ally to our UC Davis family," Gross said. "Ally brings great size and length to the team. She can shoot from the perimeter and score inside which makes her a perfect fit for our versatile style of play. On the defensive end of the floor, Ally is a tremendous rim protector and will be able to defend multiple positions for us. Most importantly, Ally is an excellent student and a caring teammate who our fans will love watching compete."
She enjoyed a stellar prep career, earning multiple all-conference honors at Marquette High School. Fitzgerald was a three-sport athlete (basketball, lacrosse, cross country) and a standout on the hardwood, becoming MHS's single-season and career leader in blocks while leading her team to three consecutive District Championships. Fitzgerald nearly averaged a double-double in high school and will look to provide some depth for the Aggies in the post.
