Looks like she was with the St Louis Billikens after that and is now an SEC analyst.

Neither played for ISU, but def part of the lineage. At one point Frese and then Abrahamson were my 1&2 choices for the next ISU coach. I’d still take Frese in a heartbeat.

"Joens earned her bachelor’s degree from Oklahoma in August 2024 in planned programs and is pursuing a master’s degree in adult education from Indiana."

^This is the way. As a player she saw two different styles from two coaching staffs and is now getting more diversity from a third school. Not that she's necessarily looking for a career in hoops but it makes sense if she is.
