Lobo women’s hoops recruiting class has a local flavor

UNM women’s basketball coach Mike Bradbury and staff on Wednesday announced four members to the Class of 2022 recruiting class, with three having ties to New Mexico.

The Lobos signed Volcano Vista teammates Natalia Chavez and Jaelyn Bates as well as Albuquerque-born Hannah Robbins and Brooke Berry from Billings, Montana. All four are listed as guards, with Bates able to play the point guard position.

“I couldn’t be happier with the signing of this class,” Bradbury noted. “Their character and talent will help our team continue to compete for championships.”
