Waco, Texas — In what is being hailed as the most astonishing recruiting victory in college athletics history, the Baylor Bears women’s basketball program has landed commitments from 8.5-foot-tall identical twins, both ranked as No. 1 overall 5-star prospects, who chose Baylor over top-tier contenders including the Georgia Bulldogs, Texas Tech Lady Raiders, and Florida Gators.
This momentous decision instantaneously reshapes the landscape of women’s college basketball, cementing Baylor’s status at the forefront of national championship contenders for years to come.
The tall sisters, whose unusual height and talent have garnered international attention, are a generational phenomenon. Combining once-in-a-lifetime size with top athleticism and skill, the twins are versatile enough to dominate in the post, handle the ball on the perimeter, and anchor the defense in ways never seen in college basketball.
“This is more than just a commitment.” “This is a movement,” remarked Baylor Head Coach Nicki Collen, who was visibly emotional during a press conference at the Ferrell Center. “These two young women selected Baylor because they support our culture, beliefs, and mission. We are not just welcome great players, but also wonderful people.”

The impact extends beyond basketball. The twins have also demonstrated an interest in community service, youth mentoring, and improving opportunities for girls in sports. Baylor has committed full support for their efforts, strengthening the bond between the players and the institution.
As the 2025 season approaches, excitement has reached fever pitch. With the twin towers firmly committed to Baylor, the Bears are prepared to rewrite history, not just win championships.
Welcome to Waco. Welcome to the new era.
