The Dayton Flyers women’s basketball program received a verbal commitment Tuesday night from Kyla Whitehead, a senior at Pickerington Central.

Whitehead, a 6-foot-2 forward, narrowed her choices to Dayton, DePaul, Memphis and Western Kentucky on Sept. 4.

Whitehead attended high school in Huntsville, Ala., before moving to Pickerington before her junior year.

This is Dayton's third 2018 commitment. Ella Skeens, a 5-foot-11 wing from Chillicothe Southeastern High School, announced her decision in June. 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.

The Flyers also added a transfer to the roster earlier this month. Araion Bradshaw, a 5-foot-6 sophomore point guard from Boston and a graduate of Tabor Academy in Marion, Mass., will redshirt the 2017-18 season and make her debut debut a season from now.
