LSU women’s basketball adds transfer Kateri Poole from Ohio State
LSU women’s basketball has added Ohio State guard Kateri Poole from the transfer portal, the school announced Monday.
Poole, a sophomore guard, made the All-Big Ten freshman team in 2021 and averaged 4.8 points and 2.4 assists last season. A five-star recruit, Poole was the No. 24 player in the nation, according to ESPN Hoopgurlz.
“I’m excited to welcome Kateri to the LSU family,” LSU coach Kim Mulkey said. “She is a tough, physical guard that brings energy and excitement every time she steps on the court! Having played in the PMAC during March Madness for Ohio State, I know Kateri is looking forward to returning and playing in front of our amazing fans!”
