Hailey Van Lith has taken her talents away from the LSU Tigers and headed to the TCU Horned Frogs.
Before the new TCU Women’s Basketball guard joins the Horned Frogs for the 2024-25 season, she will make a change to her body.
Van Lith took to her Instagram story and revealed that she was getting a tattoo on her arm.
Back in April, Van Lith officially revealed her transfer portal destination to the TCU Horned Frogs after she spent one uneven season with the LSU Tigers.
Van Lith exercised her COVID year after already playing four seasons of college ball. She decided not to enter the WNBA Draft after a disappointing lone season in Baton Rouge. She averaged 14.5 points, four rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game over three seasons at Louisville and one season at LSU.

Hailey Van Lith Was Selected to the 2024 USA Basketball 3×3 Women’s National Team
Van Lith will be playing for a more important team. This summer, she will be rocking red, white, and blue as a member of the 2024 USA Basketball 3×3 Women’s National Team at the Olympic Games in Paris.
Van Lith was the only active college player to be named to a USA Basketball team in men’s or women’s competition for 3×3 or 5-on-5.
“Getting to compete for my country in the Olympics and represent my family, my home, and TCU is a dream come true,” Van Lith said in a story released through gofrogs.com. “I am extremely humbled and grateful for this opportunity. I cannot wait to compete in Paris and be able to showcase my skills on the biggest global stage of them all. Go Horned Frogs!”
“I could not be more excited and happy for Hailey,” TCU head coach Mark Campbell said in the story on gofrogs.com. “She has worked her whole life for this opportunity. To be the only college basketball player selected to compete in the Olympics is an incredible honor, and an opportunity Hailey has earned. She has been training in Fort Worth and invested considerable hours with our staff to prepare for this moment. Hailey representing Team USA and TCU in Paris on a global stage, as she chases a gold medal will be an incredible experience to share with the Horned Frogs and Fort Worth communities. I cannot wait to head to Paris and cheer on Hailey as well as all our TCU Olympians.”
Van Lith will join LA Sparks forward Cameron Brink, Atlanta Dream guard Rhyne Howard, and former Tennessee Volunteers forward Cierra Burdick.
She is no stranger to this as she boasts extensive experience in both 5-on-5 and 3×3 with Team USA. The basketball star was a member of the 2023 USA 3×3 Women’s National Team and brought home a gold medal at the 2023 FIBA 3×3 World Cup.
