College career

[edit | edit source]

Mavunga began her college career at North Carolina. In her rookie season, she made 34 starts and played in 37 games for the Tar Heels. She averaged 10.7 points and a team-leading 8.2 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game. In her sophomore season, she was named First Team All-ACC and to the Preseason All-ACC team. Despite ranking 2nd in the ACC in double doubles that season, she decided to transfer to Ohio State.[4] Mavunga sat out the 2015–16 season under NCAA Transfer rules. In her junior season, she made 22 appearances for the Buckeyes, and averaged 11.4 points per game and 10.8 rebounds per game. She became the third player in Ohio State history to average a double double. Her senior season was another success, as she was named to the All-Big Ten team and the All-Big Ten Tournament team.[5]
