Basketball is back, and thus begins another season for the University of San Diego’s women’s basketball team and head coach Cindy Fisher. Coach Fisher embarks on her 13th season as the head coach and looks to lead the Lady Toreros to a bounce-back season after finishing the 2016-17 season with a losing record.
One of Fisher’s primary weapons on the court will once again be forward Maya Hood, a member of the Toreros since 2012. Hood suffered a season-ending knee injury after just nine games last year, and her absence was a major contributor to the Lady Toreros’ lackluster campaign.
