As @MarkW posted in the general recruiting thread a couple weeks ago, Women's Basketball received their 1st 2024 commitment (at least known to me) in 6'0"-6'1"Swedish combo guard Lova Lagerlid, who currently plays her club ball with one of the top junior teams in Sweden, RIG Luleå, while also having spent time on Sweden's U18 National team.
(As with all bball commits for either gender, I wanted to be sure she has her own thread.)
(Note - For those who haven't been looking at the general recruiting threads, the Buffs have already offered quite a few Swedish players in the last year. Quickly looking back, looks like there's been 1 known offer to a 2023 Swedish player, 3 (including Ms. Lagerlid) to 2024's and 1 to a 2025 student;athlete. Be interesting (at least to me) to see if Ms. Lagerlid starts a Swedish commit trend, or if she just replaces Dane Frida Formann as the team's lone Scandanavian on the roster.)

Hard to get much info on her (or international players in general) that I'm confident in, but a few things I found:
Her club team's individual stats (of course including her's):
Current (2022/23 season) - https://hosted.dcd.shared.geniussports.com/SBF/en/competition/34617/team/156139/statistics
(Her team's currently in 2nd place with a 16-1 record. Having started 8 of the 15 games she's played in, she's leading her team in scoring averaging 13.7 points, while also averaging 5.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 3.1 steals per game.)
Last (2021-22) season - https://hosted.dcd.shared.geniussports.com/SBF/en/competition/30970/team/143854/statistics
