Dietrick Makes Atlanta Dream Roster
May 26, 2020 | Women's Basketball
ATLANTA - Blake Dietrick '15 has been named to the Atlanta Dream roster, the team announced today.
The WNBA and players' union came to agreement that rosters had to be set on Tuesday and under the salary cap so the players could get paid on June 1. The league has been postponed due to Coronavirus pandemic.
Dietrick appeared in 17 games for the Seattle Storm last season. The year prior, she saw action with the Atlanta Dream. The Dream reached the Eastern Conference finals, losing to the Washington Mystics in five games.
During her senior campaign at Princeton, Dietrick helped the team to one of the greatest seasons in Ivy League history. The Tigers had an unblemished 30-0 regular season, won its fifth Ivy League title in six years, and won the program's first ever NCAA Tournament game. The guard averaged career-highs in points (15.1), assists (4.9), and rebounds (4.5) per game en route to Associated Press and WBCA Honorable Mention All-America honors.
A two-time first-team All-Ivy selection, Dietrick is ranked fourth on the Princeton charts in three-pointers made (210) and three-point shooting percentage (.395). Sitting fourth in assists (346) and 12th in scoring (1,233), she poured in a team-high 26 points on 10-of-18 shooting in her final collegiate contest, a NCAA second-round loss to eventual Final Four participant Maryland.
