FORT WAYNE, Ind. - Konstantina Mantziori has joined the Purdue Fort Wayne women's basketball program, head coach Maria Marchesano announced on Tuesday (June 20).
Hailing from Athens, Greece, Mantziori is a 5-foot-5 point guard that played high school basketball at Cardinal Gibbons High School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. She led the Chiefs to a 22-6 record and a No. 22 ranking in the state of Florida.
"We are very excited to be able to add Konstantina to our group and add depth to our roster," Marchesano said. "She is a very strong kid for a true freshman and plays with a flair that people will enjoy watching. Her skill set matches the way we play and I'm excited to watch her develop and grow within our systems."
The lead guard dished out a team-best 7.9 assists per game while scoring 10.9 points per contest. She was a First Team All-County selection in 2022-23 and honorable mention the year before. Cardinal Gibbons won two district titles (2021-22, 2022-23) and a regional championship in 2022-23 under Mantziori's leadership. She also led her squad to the state final four in her senior season. She also played club ball for G Nation Silver Team last summer.
Mantziori will join fellow incoming freshmen Erin Woodson and Renna Schwieterman for the 2023-24 season. The 'Dons will open the season in November.
