Washington added one of the elite players in the transfer portal yesterday with the addition of NC State transfer Tilda Trygger. The 6’6 forward from Sweden averaged 10.6 points and 7.0 rebounds last season as a true sophomore.
Trygger was one of the most highly sought after players in the transfer portal. She was rated as the #13 overall transfer by ESPN and #18 by CBS Sports.
As a freshman at NC State she 6.6 points and 4.9 rebounds per game on 27% 3-point shooting. Those marks improved across the board as a sophomore and she was able to stretch out her shooting efficiency to hit 33.9% from outside while improving as a rim protector to block 1.3 shots per game.
Trygger should fit seamlessly into the starting lineup for the Huskies in place of the graduating Yulia Grabovskaia. She has similar size to play center but is more of an outside threat than Graboyskaia which should allow the Huskies to play more of a 5-out lineup without sacrificing size as they did when McGaughy slid to center last season.
This is the second pickup of the offseason in the transfer portal for Washington along with 6’2 wing Macey Huard from Oklahoma State. More reinforcements will be needed as UW has lost 3 bench players via transfer and also lost several seniors to eligibility but only has a single incoming freshman. Washington was rumored to also be in the mix for star Penn State center transfer Gracie Merkle (19.2 pts, 8.2 reb) and 5-star local freshman Oliviyah Edwards but we’ll see if the addition of Trygger takes them out of those races who will both command high NIL figures.
Tilda Trygger averaged 10.6 points and 7.0 rebounds per game last season as a sophomore at NC State.
Tilda Trygger is considered a top transfer due to her ranking as the #13 overall transfer by ESPN and her significant improvement in performance during her sophomore year.
From her freshman to sophomore year, Trygger improved her scoring from 6.6 to 10.6 points per game and her 3-point shooting percentage from 27% to 33.9%.

Washington now has one of the better quartets in the country with Sayvia Sellers (18 pts, 3.9 ast. 35% 3pt), Avery Howell (14.2 pts, 8.3 reb, 43% 3pt), 5-star sophomore Brynn McGaughy (9.3 pts, 4.3 reb), and now Trygger. That should allow Washington to continue to improve under head coach Tina Langley who signed an extension this offseason that makes her one of the 15 highest paid coaches in the country.
