Ma’Riya Vincent is tough. She heads to her local black top in DeSoto, Texas, working on her shooting, handles and hustle. But that’s not enough.

She works to be conditioned, running three miles every day, ensuring she will never run out of energy on the court. She works to be strong, starting out with push-ups as a kid before moving to traditional weights as she gets older.

As a member of the 2024 Mizzou WBB recruiting class, Vincent will be bringing her tough nature to Columbia.
