Simmons, Levings making early impression with ASU women's basketball
Less than a week into full preseason practice, Charli Turner Thorne already is expecting major contributions from more than half of her large incoming class.
That's born in part of necessity since seven of ASU's 14 players are new. But also due to talent in a recruiting class ranked as high as No. 6 nationally (Blue Star Report) even before two late additions. This is the tallest and one of the largest classes in ASU history.
Freshmen Jaddan Simmons and Katelyn Levings are headed for immediate playing time — if not starting — with junior college transfer Gabriela Bosquez and freshman Maggie Besselink, once healthy, not far behind.
