Monday night, eight days after the NCAA women’s basketball season ended, the excitement for the Ohio State women’s basketball team didn’t end. On a night where 36 college players are hearing their names called to various WNBA teams, former Scarlet & Gray guard Taylor Mikesell heard her name called. With the first pick in the second round, the sharpshooter landed with the Indiana Fever.
Mikesell becomes a professional following an impressive five years in the NCAA. However, in the last two specifically, donning the scarlet and gray of Ohio State, pushed the Buckeyes to accomplishments it hasn’t seen in 30 years.
