With the weather cooling down and leaves falling from the trees, it can mean one thing: a new chapter and new season of Marquette women’s basketball is ready to start up.
For redshirt sophomore guard Claire Kaifes, it is an opportunity to showcase more of her skills.
Kaifes, who hails from Shawnee, Kansas, has been a durable option off the bench the last two seasons for head coach Megan Duffy. But as she enters her first season as an upper-level player on the team, she said she wants to prove more.
“Before I was a bit more of a watcher, I would watch the upperclassman and really learn from them,” Kaifes said.
