The reigning NEC Player of the Year will be spending her final collegiate season with the Wisconsin Badgers.
On3's Talia Goodman announced 6-foot-3 forward Kadidia Toure is coming to Madison, as she's set to join her fourth team in five seasons.
The Maryland native's career began at JMU, where she spent one season. After appearing in 21 games, she transferred to Arizona State, where she made 35 appearances in two seasons. From there, she made the jump to Long Island, which helped get her career back on track.
Toure went from making 7 starts in 31 games played with the Sun Devils in 2023-24 to appearing in just four games the next season. Last year, she averaged a career high 29.4 minutes per game as she just so happened to average a double-double with the Sharks.
As a junior, Toure put up numbers that were out of this world. Her 19.2 points and 10.4 rebounds per game left the NEC no choice but to name her player of the year.
First-year head coach Robin Pingeton had lost four players in the portal, and that's not even including star guard Destiny Howell, who graduated. Safe to say, she hit a home run with her first transfer as this team begins to get back on track.
