Morehead State announces the addition of Eternati Willock (6-4 JR center, Scarborough, ON) as a midyear transfer, after her brief sojourn at Middle Tennessee, which followed earlier stints at New Mexico JC and Kansas State, a collegiate journey in which she began as a North Carolina signee-turned-nonenrollee.

Morehead State Women’s Basketball head coach Greg Todd and staff are pleased to announce the addition of highly-touted 6-foot-4 transfer forward Eternati Willock.

Willock, who briefly signed with Middle Tennessee during the spring of 2019, most recently played at New Mexico Junior College where she was the nation’s No.2-rated JUCO post prospect and led the team to a 30-5 season and a runner-up finish in the NJCAA National Tournament. Willock will be eligible following the fall 2020 semester.

“We’re glad to have Eternati joining our program,” said Todd. “I feel she will make a tremendous impact on our team and produce on both ends of the court. She will be a rim protector on the defensive end and give us a versatile offensive option that can score inside as well as shoot from the outside.”
