They come from four continents, but basketball is the same on all of them. Meet the best players that come from all over the world.Hanna Zavecz (Wyoming/Australia)- Australia has become a power in the women's game, and Zavecz is no different. She has spent four years at Wyoming and has been the main cog in the Cowgirl machine. She can drive, shoot, pass, defend. She can do anything. She said she looks up to fellow Opal stars Lauren Jackson and Erin Phillips. Maybe one day she will play against them in the WNBA.
-Justyna Podziemska(Wyoming/Poland)- Coming from Poland, Podziemska first stepped in at the Casper College. Then, she moved all the way to Wyoming, where she has been one of the stars for an up-and-coming program. She may have the post player size and build, but don't let that fool you. What makes Justyna unique is what makes her the same in Europe; she loves to shoot.

Natalie Doma(Idaho State/Canada)- Outside of her TV appearance against Stanford last year, the nation has not seen a lot of Doma. Natalie has spent several years on the Canadian national team whether it's at the Junior Team or Senior Team level. Her ability to score in a variety of ways is her strongest asset. If only we could see her more often.
-Safi Mojidi(Rhode Island/Nigeria) - Mojidi played high school basketball in the D.C. area, but her immediate family comes from Nigeria, a powerful nation in the women's game from Africa. Mojidi may not be the biggest player(5'6"), but she may have the biggest heart. When she steps on the floor, she is in control. She's a leader. She's a scorer. She's a defender. She does what she does, and forces nothing.
-Chioma Nnamaka(Georgia Tech/Sweden)- On a team full of athletic slashers, Nnamaka is the one player that keeps defenses honest. As a native of Sweden, Chioma prides herself on the ability to carry her team offensively. She can put up huge numbers and is never afraid to shoot it.
