It was the right team at the right time, said Columbia University women’s basketball coach Megan Griffith, who recently completed a one-week foreign tour through Morocco and Spain with the team.
The trip had originally been planned for 2020, but having it delayed was sort of a blessing as this team has not only put in the work, but also notched the success to make the most of it.
Griffith wanted the team to travel somewhere interesting and educational. The team has two players from Spain, Mary Lobon and Noa Comesaña, who were excited to experience their home country with their teammates, but at least one of the cities they visited, Seville, was new to them. Their parents came to the games, which was a proud moment for them. The trip even provided the coaches an opportunity to do some recruiting.
