RUSTON | Louisiana Tech women's basketball head coach
Brooke Stoehr announced the addition of Evie Goetz to the Lady Techsters roster today. Goetz is a transfer forward from TCU.
"We are thrilled to welcome Evie to the Lady Techster family," head coach
Brooke Stoehr said. "She is a versatile athlete who brings toughness to the court with her ability to defend and score. Evie can create offense for herself as well as facilitate for others. We love her length on the perimeter and her ability to score in a variety of ways. She is an intense competitor, and we couldn't be more excited to welcome her family to our Louisiana Tech family. Evie will be a tremendous addition to our program, campus, and the Ruston community."
Goetz, a 6-1 four-star recruit from Denton, Texas, was the No. 6 ranked recruit in Texas by PrepGirlHoops.com coming out of Guyer High School. In addition, Prospects Nation ranked her as the 37th-best forward and No. 115 overall player in the nation.
Goetz prepped her first two seasons at Flower Mound Marcus High School, where she led the Wildcats to a 31-6 record, including a 14-1 district championship record. She was named the district 6-5A Co-Offensive Player of the Year in 2020 after averaging a team-high 14.1 PPG and 6.4 RPG. She also earned both TABC and TGCA all-state honors.
At Guyer, she led the team to a 19-6 overall record and a 6A bi-district playoff appearance in 2020-21 and earned all-state honors from TABC and TGCA for the second consecutive year.
Following a redshirt freshman season at TCU in 2021-22, she appeared in 13 games while making three starts before her season ended due to injury. She tallied season-highs in minutes (20), points (8), and rebounds (3) while hitting 2-4 from three in her second collegiate game at North Carolina. She followed that performance with consecutive starts against UTSA, South Florida, and Sam Houston. She finished the season with six steals, four assists, and two blocks.
Goetz has three years remaining eligibility and is pursuing her bachelor's degree in mathematics.
