Michigan State women’s basketball and head coach Robyn Fralick have picked up the program's second commitment of the 2024 recruiting class. Forward Juliann Woodard out of Jennings County High School in North Vernon, Indiana announced her pledge to the Spartans on Friday.
Woodard had other scholarship offers from Ball State, Buffalo, Butler, Evansville, Indiana State, Marquette, Murray State, Wake Forest and Western Kentucky. Woodard received an offer from Michigan State in June.
In the Indiana All-Stars versus Juniors game this past month, Woodard grabbed 11 rebounds and scored 12 points. She also tallied five steals, four assists and two blocks against the top high school talent in Indiana.
She is heading into her senior year at Jennings County. The 6-foot Woodard is currently playing UAA ball with the West Virginia Thunder's 17U team.
Woodard is the second player in the 2024 class to commit to Fralick and the Spartans after forward Helen Holley from Gilmour Academy in Gates Mills, Ohio committed in May.
Since Fralick’s introductory press conference, she has acquired five players. On May 17, Michigan State flipped guard Kennedy Blair from Fralick’s former school, Bowling Green. In April, Fralick flipped another Bowling Green signee: forward Mary Meng. Fralick also acquired guard/forward Jocelyn Tate from Bowling Green, via the transfer portal, and added transfer Lauren Ross out of Western Michigan. Read more about each of those players here.
