HONOLULU – Hawai'i women's basketball coach Laura Beeman bolstered her roster for next season and beyond with the signing of 5-foot-10 forward Myrrah Joseph.

"We are really, really excited about Myrrah," Beeman said. "She was one of those kids that when I saw her play I said 'I absolutely have to have this kid. I want this kid on our roster.' She brings all the character pieces. She brings the attitude and the effort pieces that we're trying to continue to build with a great culture in our locker room."

Joseph, currently a senior at Carson High School in Carson, Calif., will join the Rainbow Wahine as a freshman next fall. The ESPN 3-star prospect helped Windward High School to a CIF Division I state championship as a junior last season.

Joseph also played for the Cal Storm of the EYBL where she averaged 4.9 points and 5.2 rebounds in five games in the summer of 2017.

"With her ability on the floor, she will remind a lot of people of Destiny King," Beeman added. "That 1-through-4 player who can rebound and run, she can post up, she can shoot the three. She's a winner and when you bring that kind of kid on to your roster it makes for a really exciting, bright future."
