The 3X NCAA Champion Nourse Twins have ”nothing else but to be themselves”

The 3X NCAA Champion Nourse Twins have ”nothing else but to be themselves”

The Nourse Twins – Audrey Nourse and Nicole Nourse – are three-time NCAA Champions as starters as USC, something no other women’s program has ever done at Southern Cal. Now, as fall season gets underway, they’re looking for an unprecedented fourth consecutive National Championship. We chatted all about their success as USC, as well as:

  • Why they decided to flip their commitment from Stanford to USC
  • What the culture is like on a team that included an Olympian (Tina Graudina), AVP champions (Julia Scoles and Hailey Harward), consummate winners (Sammy Slater) and World Champions (Delaynie Maple, Megan Kraft)
  • The mental side of the game, and why getting a sports psychologist at age 16 has been huge for their development and success
  • What it was like for the NCAA Championship to come down to their court, and why it all felt so…normal

And so much more.

Super fun conversation with the Nourse Twins!
