Grand Rapids Press sports writer Brian VanOcthen is reporting on several transfers from Grand Valley State University's women's basketball program.
The headliner is All-Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference guard Emma Veach, a 5-foot-9 standout from Grand Haven. Veach, a sophomore last year, apparently is considering transferring to Hillsdale, Michigan Tech, Northern Kentucky and Lewis University (Ill.). There are two other players leaving the program, according to VanOchten's article: Maddie Burnett, a 5-foot-8 guard, and Paige Smith, a 5-foot-11 front court player.
Transfers, as wrote in an earlier article, can have a major impact. Transfers are experienced by all schools at one point or another (both leaving and coming in).

The article is an interesting read and can be found here.
