BLOOMINGTON, IN — The Indiana Hoosiers women’s basketball team has made a major splash on the recruiting front, securing a commitment from the nation’s No. 1-ranked recruit, Sarah Strong. Strong, a standout forward from Westfield High School in Indiana, announced her decision to join the Hoosiers for the 2024-25 season, adding yet another high-profile talent to the program’s growing roster.
The 6-foot-3 Strong is widely regarded as one of the most complete players in the country.

Strong’s combination of size, athleticism, and basketball IQ has drawn comparisons to some of the best players in women’s college basketball, making her one of the most highly anticipated recruits in recent memory.
Head coach Teri Moren, who has led the Hoosiers to multiple NCAA Tournament appearances and elevated the program into national contention, praised Strong’s decision to commit to Indiana. “Sarah is a once-in-a-generation talent, and we are beyond thrilled that she has chosen to be a part of our Hoosier family,” Moren said. “Her skill set and work ethic are unmatched, and we believe she will help elevate our program to new heights.”
Strong’s commitment strengthens Indiana’s already impressive recruiting class, which continues to make waves on the national scene. The Hoosiers will be looking to build on their recent successes and make another deep run in the NCAA Tournament with Strong leading the way.
