Hannah Hidalgo (University of Notre Dame, Sophomore Guard)

The youngest of our featured athletes, Hannah Hidalgo is lightning in a bottle: diving, screaming, and flexing her way to victory. That competitive fire inspires her scrappy style of play, and after her dazzling play on the court secured ACC Rookie of the Year honors and national attention in 2024, Hannah is having a standout sophomore season - with her faith and her family grounding her along the way.

Flau'Jae Johnson (Louisiana State University, Junior Guard)

On the court, Flau'Jae is an emerging leader for the LSU Tigers who are looking for their second title in three seasons. Off the court, Flau'Jae can be found managing her flourishing music career and growing list of NIL deals, while contemplating declaring for the WNBA draft.

Kiki Iriafen (University of Southern California, Graduate Student Forward)

After graduating early from Stanford with a degree in design engineering, Los Angeles native, Kiki Iriafen, transferred to the University of Southern California for the 2024-25 season. Navigating these new surroundings, Kiki is growing as a vocal leader and star in her own right, The 2024 Pac-12 Most Improved Player of the Year is motivated to succeed as the missing piece of this Trojans championship run and is hoping to secure her spot as a top-5 WNBA pick.
