Trio of Transfers Commit to NSU Women’s Basketball
Nova Southeastern Women’s Basketball welcomes three transfer student-athletes to the “One Shark Family,” as Head Coach LeAnn Freeland-Curry announces the commitment of Madison Frederick, Emma Krause and Zeyno Seren, on Thursday afternoon.
Frederick joins the Sharks as a graduate transfer from Iowa State. Frederick appeared in 22 games during the 2021-22 season for the Cyclones, while also earning Academic All-Big 12 First-Team recognition for the third consecutive season.
“We’re very excited to welcome Madison to our program here at Nova Southeastern. While at Iowa State, she made a positive impact both on and off the court, serving as a leader for four seasons,” said Freeland-Curry. “Because of her experience competing in the Big-12, she will be well-prepared to be a high impact player with our program. She’s a natural leader, a versatile player, has a high basketball IQ, and a team-first mentality which are all essential to being successful as a Shark!”
Frederick graduated from Iowa State with a 3.9 GPA with a degree in Accounting and will be pursuing a graduate degree in Leadership as well as a Business Certificate at Nova Southeastern.
Krause comes to Nova Southeastern from William & Mary, and is returning to the Rick Case Arena, where she has previously attended basketball camps at NSU.
“When we noticed Emma in the transfer portal, we immediately knew we had to reach out. Nearly ten years ago, she attended basketball camps and was a ball girl for us during home games, so it’s a full-circle moment to sign her to our program,” added Freeland-Curry. “Emma is a skilled forward, who has shown comfort on the perimeter, and alongside her intangibles, can use her size, skill set and three-point shooting ability to be a great fit with our team.”
Krause held a 3.65 GPA at WIlliam and Mary, graduating with a degree in Kinesiology and Health Sciences. At NSU, Krause intends to pursue a Sports Science graduate degree.
Seren signs with the Sharks from New Mexico State, where she appeared in 15 games during the 2021-22 season.
“Zeyno impressed us throughout her recruitment process, due to her maturity, intelligence, and professional approach to the process. She is eager, fearless, and excited to be an impact player in our program,” continued Freeland-Curry. “Zeyno uses her size and athleticism to her advantage, often creating shots for her and her teammates, as well as getting to the rim. Additionally, her tenacious on-ball defense makes her a tough defender.”
Seren will be pursuing a Business degree, with a concentration in Economics, while enrolled at Nova Southeastern and currently has a 3.9 GPA.
