USD guard Angie Robles on her journey from San Diego to Denver to Vermillion
from Happy Hour with John Gaskins · host John Gaskins
All the Coyote women did this season was double Carrie Eighmey's first-year win total from 11 to 22 and give USD a shot at a No. 2 seed in the regular season finale. Not bad for an almost entirely new roster. Eighmey brought in transfers from all over the country, including four seniors who had one last stop and one last chance at glory in their college careers. That chance is in front of them in Sioux Falls. Robles is at the forefront of the transfer crew. The point guard is the Yotes' second-leading scorer at 10 points per game and leads the team in assists and swagger. A San Diego native who spent her first four seasons at Summit League opponent Denver, Robles walks through a basketball life that started as the offspring of a professional hooper from the Philippines. She explains how her collegiate plane landed in Vermillion, a far cry in so many ways from Southern California and Colorado, but a place she appreciates. She offers reflection on the late January win over South Dakota State — the program's most relevant since Dawn Plitzuweit's crew beat SDSU for a third consecutive SLT title, then reeled off two NCAA Tournament wins in 2022 — and explanation of the 82-49 loss to the Jacks on Saturday. How does she see the Yotes stemming that tide in a likely Round 3 in Sioux Falls, a potential Saturday semifinal?
