New Arizona women’s basketball head coach Becky Burke has added a number of promising guards to her roster via the transfer portal. She now has a forward to her name with the commitment of former Kansas post player Freddie Wallace.

Wallace announced her commitment to Arizona on Friday morning.

Wallace is the second player to transfer to Arizona from another Power 4 school. She and guard Kamryn Kitchen have another thing in common. Both spent their only season at that other Power 4 school sitting out as redshirts. Wallace cited health issues for her decision to redshirt, according to KUSports.com

The 6-foot-2 Wallace was highly successful at the junior college level before joining the Jayhawks, earning juco All-American honors twice at Butler Community College. She earned third-team honors as a freshman and moved up to the second team as a sophomore. It made her one of two players in BCC program history to be All-Americans twice.

Wallace averaged 17.1 points in 2023-24, good for fourth in the Kansas Jayhawk Community College Conference. She hit 47.2 percent of her shots and was good for 6.8 rebounds per game.

Wallace finished her two-year juco career as Butler’s all-time leading scorer with 1,138 career points. Highlights from both years at Butler CC can be found on her Instagram page.

Wallace gives Arizona two forwards on the roster. She joins returner Montaya Dew. Burke has also added four guards.
