STEPHENVILLE, Texas – Tarleton Women's Basketball head coach Bill Brock has wasted no time in revamping the roster since joining the Texans. On Wednesday, he announced a 12th new addition to Tarleton's 2023-24 roster.
 
The Texans signed 6-2 forward Anya McKenzie, who played the last three years for Ipswich Basketball Club, an elite basketball academy in the United Kingdom. The club team worked in conjunction with her high school, Copleston HS.
 
This past season in the Women's Elite Academy Basketball League (WEABL), McKenzie averaged 3.9 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 12.0 minutes per game across seven contests. She also played in the top division of the Women's National Basketball League (WNBL) this past year, averaging 2.0 points and 3.3 rebounds in 10.2 minutes across 19 games.
 
Upon arrival at Tarleton, McKenzie will pursue a degree in legal studies.
 
The Luton, U.K., native, is the fifth player born outside the United States that Brock has signed this offseason.
 
McKenzie joins post player Faith Acker from Winnsboro High School, guard Miannah Little from McLennan CC, stretch-four Andjela Bigovic from Cochise College, forward Lexi Bull from Wyoming, post Vitória Carvalho from South Plains College, guard Gosia Byczkowska from Howard College, guard Jakoriah Long from Blinn College, post player Dyamon Griggs from Midwestern State, guard Karyn Sanford from UAlbany, and guard Nykesha Sanders from Paris Junior College, and guard Teresa Maggio from IUPUI as the players signed since Brock was introduced as the head coach of the Texans in late March.
