Marquette Women’s Basketball Experiences Changes Amid Coaching Transition

The recent hiring of Megan Duffy as the new head coach for Virginia Tech from Marquette on April 3rd has led to shifts in the recruiting landscape and the active roster for the Golden Eagles. Let’s review the latest updates.

Current Roster
Lee Volker

Lee Volker, who joined Marquette last offseason from Duke, has entered the transfer portal. She played in all 32 games and became a key rotation player, averaging 3.5 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 1.1 assists per game.

Class of 2024
Kayl Petersen

Following Virginia Tech’s announcement, Kayl Petersen expressed on Twitter her decision to reopen her recruiting process. However, she officially signed with Marquette in November, necessitating her release from the letter of intent. It’s likely that Marquette will grant her release soon.

Jaeda Wilson

Jaeda Wilson took a bit longer to announce her status but has also decided to explore other options, aligning with Petersen’s decision. Similarly, Marquette needs to release her from the letter of intent signed in November. Given the coaching transition, it would be sensible for Marquette to facilitate these releases promptly to allow the recruits to pursue their desired paths.
