And Tucson.Com recalls that the Arizona Wildcats WNIT run brings memories of the 1995-96s when ‘Barnes averaged 17.4 points per game as a sophomore, and was named the WNIT’s most valuable player. Constand and Pantoja were also named to the all-tournament team…’ (By Ron Parsons, Arizona Daily Wildcat)

Andrea Constand played for Canada at the 1997 Summer Universiade and came to be recognized as one of the top three female high-school basketball players in Canada.

It was in 1997 that Italy signed her up for a two-year contract. Before she left for Europe, she said in an interview that she is on ‘a mission, first to help Canada do well, then to play basketball in Italy, and then to play for WNBA’.

On her return to Canada in 1999, Andrea renewed her efforts to play the National Women’s Basketball Association. Along with rigorous training, she worked a job at a Nike showroom. And after receiving her degree, she worked for some time as a coach in the local teen basketball program.

Then it was that Andrea was recruited as Director of Operations for the women’s basketball team at Temple University in Philadelphia, by the Olympic Gold Medalist, Coach Dawn Staley.

Picking up the Pieces of Her Personal Life
