WBB signs 6–3 Forward Loren Christie and 6–4 Center Elea Gaba

The UB Women's Basketball team has signed two incoming freshman, 6–3 forward Loren Christie from from Hertfordshire, England; and 6–4 center Elea Gaba from Dresden, Germany. Both have international playing experience.

You can read the details about Christie here, and about Gaba here.

They join incoming freshmen Dyaisha Fair and Jessika Schiffer, who were previously announced. Since Schiffer is from Germany as well, the international flavor of UB Women's Basketball continues, although for the first time weighted heavily towards Europeans.

This gives Buffalo the potential of having an absolutely huge front line by MAC standards. Combined with returning players, the Bulls can use on their front line:

6–4: Gaba
6–3: Christie and current freshman Keowah Walters
6–2: current freshmen Adebola Adeyeye and Zena Elias
6–1: current junior Summer Hemphill

This also opens up the possibility of using Hemphill at either small forward or power forward, where I think she can be even more effective than playing center (although she was very effective at the center position this year).
