LA JOLLA, Calif. – With the 2023 season nearing its midpoint, UC San Diego sophomore Katelyn Vu joined ESPN's Gill Gross in the broadcast booth earlier this month to chat about the Tritons' success so far this spring. Vu reflected on some key wins, the chemistry with her doubles partner Rachel Wagner, why she's having so much fun this year, and what it was like to be part of head coach Liz LaPlante's milestone 600th victory.

The conversation took place during a recent UC San Diego women's basketball game against Cal State Fullerton. The full conversation can be seen below or via ucsdtritons.com/watch.


 
Vu and her teammates will return to the courts on March 31 for a match at Hawai'i Pacific in Honolulu.
