Washington WBB's Top Transfer Scores Career-High in Sweden Exhibition
Incoming Washington Huskies transfer Tilda Trygger scored a career-high 17 points and hauled in 8 rebounds to help lead Sweden's women's national team to a 73-68 win in an international friendly against Finland on Friday.Trygger, a 6-foot-6 second-year forward from North Carolina State, knocked down 7-of-8 shots from the floor and dominated the defensive glass with seven of her eight boards, ensuring that Finland didn't get a second-chance possession.Though the incoming transfer has previously scored 31 points in Sweden's 92-86 victory over Poland at the 2025 FIBA U20 Eurobasket, the Stockholm native has only played in a handful of games for the country's top national team.View this post on InstagramTrygger is one of several transfer additions for coach Tina Langley this past offseason ahead of the 2026-27 season. At NC State, the second-year forward averaged 10.6 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 1.3 blocks across 30 minutes per game, offering versatility to play multiple positions and make an impact at both ends of the court.The third-year post threat should pair well with returning second-year forward and All-Big Ten Freshman Team Brynn McGaughy, who finished her freshman season averaging 9.3 points and 3.4 rebounds per game.Trygger finished No. 10 in the ACC in rebounds and No. 8 in blocks per game for the Wolfpack after a record-setting freshman campaign that etched her name in the NC State top ten in games played (34) and blocks (22).This article originally appeared on Huskies Wire: Washington WBB's Top Transfer Scores Career-High in Sweden Exhibition
