Yett comes to Boise State from the local youth volleyball ranks, where she has been coaching for the Idaho Crush Volleyball Club, assisting with the 15U, 16U, and 17U teams. While with Idaho Crush, her teams have placed as high as fifth in the nation and are consistently ranked in the top 20.

Lalotte played in 149 games for the Broncos, making 88 career starts. She averaged 7.6 points and 5.3 rebounds while shooting 48.3% from the field. She was named Mountain West Honorable-Mention as a sophomore and took home a conference player of the week award on Nov. 28, 2022.
