Checking in on Krystal Leger-Walker in New Zealand

After leading her team into the Washington State history books by becoming the first teams to play in the NCAA Tournament in back-to-back seasons, Krystal Leger-Walker has embarked on her professional career with Northern Kahu of the Tauihi Basketball Aotearoa League in her home country of New Zealand.

The eldest Leger-Walker sister and Northern Kahu kicked off their season earlier this month and are off to a 4-0 start to the young season.

The Wizard of Waikato debuted for Northern Kahu in their first game on July 3 against Southern Hoiho. Northern Kahu held off Southern Hoiho for a 50-46 victory as Leger-Walker scored nine points, shooting 9-17 from the field, and added six rebounds.
