I was totally confused myself, wondering whether Kayleigh had somehow reclassed as a first-year student. (We've seen stranger things in the world of the portal!) 🤓

At any rate, I eventually made my way over to ESPN and saw that there are six fresh(wo)men on the 50-player watch list, none of them from UConn.
