Winning a WNIT title does have it's perks. And for UA coach Adia Barnes, it seems to be coming in fives β€” five-star players, that is.

Anaya Boyd, a five-star recruit in the 2020 recruiting class, tweeted Thursday that Arizona is among her top five schools.

Boyd is the second five-star recruit to include Arizona among her finalists. Lauren Ware, a post player from Bismarck, North Dakota, visited campus last weekend.Β 

Boyd, from Hampton Georgia's Lovejoy High School, is a 5-foot-11-inch guard who ESPN has ranked No. 7 in her position and 29 overall. Others on Boyd's list include USC, Georgia Tech, Kentucky and North Carolina State.

Barnes already has a verbal commitment from Derin Erdogan, a point guard from Turkey, for 2020.
