She battled injuries during her time in Columbia, suffering a season-ending injury 15 minutes into an SEC Tournament semifinals game that forced her to miss the entire 2021 season. She made 14 appearances with two starts in her time there, logging four shots with two on goal. She took to the pitch for the final minutes of the SEC Championship game against Alabama in 2022 and played eight minutes in the NCAA Tournament second-round game against Stanford in 2023.
