Audi Crooks, the Big 12's dominant center and No. 1 transfer in ESPN's rankings, has committed to Oklahoma State after three standout seasons at Iowa State. The 6-foot-3 star made her announcement Sunday night via social media, appearing in an Oklahoma State uniform in a celebratory video with Cowgirls coach Jacie Hoyt.

Crooks, an Iowa native, leaves the Cyclones as one of the most decorated players in program history. She ranked second nationally this past season with 25.8 points per game and shot 64.9% from the field. For her career, she averaged 22.8 points and 7.7 rebounds while shooting 61.1% from the field. The two-time all-Big 12 first-team selection scored 30 or more points 17 times, including five 40-point games, with a career-high 47 points against Indiana.

Both programs face significant roster turnover, with Iowa State finishing 22-10 and Oklahoma State at 24-10. Crooks' arrival gives the Cowgirls an immediate star presence as they reload for Big 12 competition. Her decision to stay within the conference ensures she'll face her former team at least twice next season, adding intrigue to what was already a competitive league race.
