April served as a month of roster turnover for head coach Brenda Frese and the Terps and after adding four guards last week, Maryland snagged another over the weekend.
Former Vanderbilt forward Brinae Alexander became the latest name to join the program after taking a visit over the weekend. “This is another great day to be a Terp,” Frese said via press release on Sunday. “Our staff continues to find the right pieces to fit our program. Brinae is a tremendous addition to our Maryland family. She gives us another experienced, veteran player who has had a tremendous amount of success in the SEC. She is a dynamic scorer that can score in a variety of ways. We can't wait to welcome Brinae and her family to College Park."
Alexander led the Commadores in scoring last season with 15.2 points per game while shooting 40.9% from the floor and 36% from deep, along with 3.5 rebounds and 1.4 assists.
Alexander was named to the All-SEC Freshman team following the 2018-19 season but ruptured her Achilles the following season, ending her sophomore year after just seven games.
"I've had Maryland in my sights for a while now,” Alexander said via press release. “The winning culture and an opportunity to play in the Big Ten were both appealing to me. After speaking with Coach Frese and her staff, I really felt they wanted to bring me into their family. I know that Maryland will be my home away from home where I can not only continue my education, but also have an oppurtunity to truly thrive on the floor with a coaching staff who supports me and a team who wants to win."
Alexander is Maryland's fifth addition in the last month, joining incoming freshmen Brianna McDaniel and Gia Cooke, transfer Elisa Pinzan from USF and transfer Abby Meyers from Princeton. Incoming freshmen Ava Sciolla and Mila Reynolds signed with Maryland in November, giving the Terrapins a top 10 recruiting class for the 15th time under head coach.
