Coach Woodin on Kunkel: "Cariann is a great addition to our women's basketball program. Coach (Alisha) Breen and I were very excited to sign her. Her versatility and fundamentals really impressed us. Cariann has great shooting touch and plays so hard on both ends. She had an excellent career at Wenatchee College and both her college coach and high school coach praised her integrity, coach-ability, and leadership. We are expecting her to bring experience and passion to our team right away."
Kunkel on choosing MSUB: "I chose MSUB because it felt like the perfect fit. I really wanted to find a school that emphasized family and unity, and I believe MSUB has those qualities and so much more. All the coaches and players I spoke to were very welcoming and they had nothing but good things to say about the school and the basketball program. I wanted to come back to Montana to play my last two years of basketball and I am thankful for the opportunity I have to get on the court this fall."
