CHARLOTTE, N.C. - While the academic year has finally come to an end, Queens women's basketball continues to be hard at work in building its roster for the upcoming 2023-24 season. The Royals will welcome in the newest addition to the team, as head coach Jen Brown announces the signing of junior transfer Kayra Freeman. 

Freeman comes to Queens after having spent two seasons with fellow ASUN conference member, Eastern Kentucky. She made an impact on the Colonels' program as early as her freshman season, appearing in all 31 games that season and posting six double-digit scoring performances including a career-high 11 points on four different occasions. She followed that up with another 31 appearances during her sophomore campaign, netting a season-high six points against Queens. 

She becomes the second student-athlete to be added to the 2023-24 roster, hoping to come in and make an impact at the guard position. The junior guard hails from Elizabethtown, Kentucky and attended Elizabethtown High School. 

"Kayra's drive to be the very best on and off the court is a welcomed addition to our women's basketball family", said head coach Jen Brown. "She possesses all the attributes we look for in our student-athletes. Her athleticism and ability to create in an uptempo system will be a huge asset to our program. I couldn't be more thrilled to coach and mentor her."
