Providence transfer Kaela Webb (5-6 SO combo guard, Pontiac, MI) has landed at Detroit Mercy (Horizon). Her father, Tim Webb, was hired as an Titan assistant coach in early June.

Gilbert on Webb: “We are extremely grateful to add Kaela Webb to our Titan family. Kaela is a rising star in the women’s game. She is a proven local talent who helped lead Detroit Country Day High School to three state titles. She was a finalist for Michigan Miss Basketball in 2018, a four-time All-State performer and the 2018 Associated Press Class B Player of the Year. At Providence, she was a member of the Big East All-Freshman Team and finished second in scoring and first in steals last year. Kaela is a sharp-shooting 3-point shooter, who finished ranked second in the Big East conference in 3-point field goals made, 3-point field goals made per game and 3-point field goal percentage last season. She is a combo guard who is effective and efficient at both the one and two positions. Kaela’s work ethic and leadership ability will be quite valuable to our team.”
