North Dakota State women's basketball head coach Jory Collins has had a busy month.

The Bison season ended at the end of March in the third round of the Women's NIT.

Less than a week later, star player Elle Evans entered the transfer portal. Evans announced this week that she is transferring to Kansas to spend her final two years of basketball.

Collins has been busy, adding three players to his team for next season. Australian guard Amelia Hobson will join the team, along with transfers Molly Lenz from Illinois State and Sacia Vanderpool from Wisconsin.

They will join incoming freshmen Claire Stern and Marisa Frost on next year's roster, rounding it out with 13 players.

Collins also discusses the challenges of trying to keep a player like Evans and how he handles the emotions of that decision.
