After her brilliant career at UC Davis, basketball maven Morgan Bertsch’s massive talents are no longer foreign to the fans in Europe.
The all-time leading Aggie scorer — women’s or men’s programs — is in her fourth season abroad, tearing it up as the top point-maker for first-place Mechelen Kangoeroes (sic) of Belgium.
After a stop in Moscow and two campaigns in Poland, Bertsch is averaging almost 17 points a game, 4.3 rebounds and two assists this season while finally getting to play her attack-the-basket style in this third-century Flemish enclave of 86,000.
“It’s been really great,” reports the 6-3 power forward. “I’m loving the location I have this year. In seasons past, each place had their qualities, but being in Belgium … it has opened my eyes.”
