She was named the LSC Offensive Player of the Week on January 8 for her efforts against Angelo State and Texas A&M-Kingsville. For the month, Bostad scored 126 points and averaged 3.8 rebounds to go along with 27 assists, 15 steals, and three blocks.??****************?The following is
reprinted in part from an article reprinted in part from The Flash Today Texanns,
Bostad soar as chemistry improves?
The past Kennedale
superstar tabbed in 2014 as Texas Girls Coaches Association 1A-3A Athlete of
the Year signed with Arkansas out of high school and was playing as a true
freshman.
Having fallen out
of love with her original school of choice, Bostad transferred to Texas State
but played just one season in two years due to injury.
With one year left
in Division I or two in Divsion II, Bostad called up an old teammate and asked
about her career at Tarleton.
The rest isn?t so
much history as it is history in the making. The TexAnns have recovered from
dropping five of their first nine contests including dropping three of four to
begin play in the Lone Star Conference, winning 12 of their last 14 games. [The
Texanns are currently 16-7 overall and 10-5 in conference play]
It?s also Bostad
who hit the game-winning free throws at West Texas A&M, Bostad who once
dropped 11 in a fourth quarter and, who else, Bostad who scored 13 in the final
three minutes and in overtime against Eastern New Mexico.
?I love it,? Bostad
told Brad Keith of TheFlash Today.com. ?We have an awesome campus with great
traditions. I almost stepped on the grass once and somebody yelled at me, so I
know not to walk on the grass. (laugh) I love my coaches and my teammates, I?m
just very happy to be here.?
