Gophers women's basketball coach Lindsay Whalen has completed her 2023 recruiting class after getting a signed letter of intent from Canadian 6-0 wing Ajok Madol.

Madol became the fourth scholarship player to sign in this class for the Gophers, with Brynn Senden joining as a preferred walk-on.

From Regina, Saskatchewan, Madol was a member of the U17 Canadian team that reached the semifinals of the 2022 FIBA World Cup. She also took part in the 2022 Biosteel All-Canada basketball game.
"Ajok brings us great length along with the ability to play multiple positions,'' Whalen said in a news release.
Madol joins a group that had already signed letters of intent to come to Minnesota. They include Maple Grove guard Kennedy Klick, Montesano (Wash.) forward McKynnlie Dalan and Czech wing Dominika Paurova.
Wayzata guard Brynn Senden — who played with current Gophers guard Mara Braun — will join the team as a preferred walk-on.
Junior Mara Braun rebroke the same bone in her foot as last season, so the 6-0 Gophers will be without their leading scorer and top overall player.
