Oklahoma State women's basketball coach Jacie Hoyt has landed a major transfer addition in Talexa Weeter, the Division II National Player of the Year from Fort Hays State. Weeter, a 6-foot guard, led all of Division I and II in scoring at 27.5 points per game last season and will provide a significant scoring boost to the Cowgirls, who have been hit hard by portal departures.

Why it matters

Oklahoma State is looking to replace a significant amount of scoring production from last season, with four of its top seven scorers set to transfer out. Weeter's addition as a high-volume, high-efficiency scorer from the Division II level could help offset those losses and keep the Cowgirls competitive in the Big 12 next season.

The details

Weeter scored at least 25 points in 19 of 31 games last season, including a 45-point outburst against Northwest Missouri State and a 46-point performance against Harding in the NCAA Tournament. She shot 51.5% from the field and 39.8% from 3-point range on nearly 5 attempts per game, while also averaging 8.9 rebounds per contest. Weeter had received recruiting interest from several major conference programs before choosing to transfer to Oklahoma State.

  • Weeter committed to Oklahoma State on Tuesday, March 31, 2026.

Weeter will join the Oklahoma State roster for the 2026-27 season and be expected to play a major role in the Cowgirls' offense as they look to bounce back from the loss of several key contributors.

The takeaway

Oklahoma State's addition of the Division II scoring leader Talexa Weeter represents a significant coup in the transfer portal, as the Cowgirls look to quickly reload after losing much of their offensive production from last season. Weeter's high-volume, high-efficiency scoring could be a game-changer for Oklahoma State as they aim to remain competitive in the Big 12.
