Bradshaw ranked 33rd in the nation in 2016, according to the ESPN HoopGurlz rankings. She was a five-star recruit who ranked 10th in the nation at point guard.

Bradshaw appeared in 24 games, including three in the NCAA tournament, as a freshman with the Gamecocks. She averaged 0.9 points in 6.6 minutes per game.

Bradshaw is the second recruit Dayton has earned a commitment from in recent weeks. Amari Davidson, a 6-2 post from Avon High School, announced her verbal commitment in August. She’s a three-star recruit, according to ESPN.
