UConn continues to recruit through local avenues, with news surfacing last week that Northfield Mount Hermon and NEFC midfielder Peyton Pettiford-Rowan (Northampton, Mass.) committed to their Class of 2021.
Pettiford-Rowan, 17, called it a proud moment after growing up watching UConn women’s basketball with her family.
Asked about her decision, she also cited great rapport with head coach Margaret Rodriguez and assistant coach Carey O’Brien at a Huskies’ ID camp in February.
