🎉 TRIVIA ANSWER

Answer: Mary Kay Naro!

No. 12 is just one of two players in program history who has dished out 100 or more assists in four consecutive seasons. She will look to make it five as she and the rest of the team begin the regular season on Nov. 4 against Eastern Oregon.

🔷 Have a great Wednesday, Bronco Nation!
