Joens averaged 12.9 points per game as a sophomore this past year while helping City High advance to the Class 5A state title game. She earned third-team All-State honors and was most recently a member of the All-Iowa Attack U17 team which won the Nike EYBL national championship.

On that All-Iowa Attack team, Aubrey played alongside 2020 Iowa State commit Kylie Feurebach and 2020 Iowa State target Caitlin Clark, who is considered one of the top-5 prospects in the country for her class. The Cyclones also hold a commitment from Wisconsin guard Lexi Donarski in the 2020 class.

Joens will have two seasons to play alongside her sister in Ames starting with the 2020-21 campaign. We will have more to come later this afternoon on Joens’ commitment.
