Early years

Baugh was born on May 21, 1989 in Sacramento, California and attended Sacramento High School. [1] In four years on the school's basketball team, she amassed 1,870 points, 1,222 rebounds, 300 blocks, 273 assists, and 208 steals. [2] Graduating in 2007, she held the school record in scoring until it was broken in 2024. [3] Sacramento High School retired Baugh's #22 jersey in 2023. [4] [5] She played for the United States in the 2006 FIBA Under-18 Women's AmeriCup and the 2007 FIBA Under-19 World Championship for Women, helping the U.S. secure gold medals in both. [1] She was additionally named first-team All-American in 2007 by several sources, including USA Today and McDonald's. [6]

College career

Baugh played college basketball for the Tennessee Lady Volunteers. She played in all 38 games as a freshman, averaging 5.3 points and 4.0 rebounds per game. She tore her ACL during Tennessee's victory in the 2008 national championship game against the Stanford Cardinal. Returning from the injury in her sophomore season, Baugh averaged 6.5 points and 7.3 rebounds per game and recorded three double-doubles before suffering a second ACL tear in the same knee. After the injury, she also had surgery to address a meniscus tear, forcing her to miss the next season entirely. She returned in time to play in 24 games of the 2010–2011 season, including in four games of the 2011 NCAA Division I women's basketball tournament, during which she averaged 5.0 points and 4.3 rebounds per game. Returning for a final season with the Volunteers, Baugh played in 35 games, averaging 7.5 points and 6.7 rebounds per game with four double-doubles; she helped Tennessee to three wins in the 2012 NCAA Division I women's basketball tournament before the team was eliminated in the regional finals. [1]

Professional career

Baugh was selected in the third round (25th overall) of the 2012 WNBA draft by the Tulsa Shock. She was waived by the team on May 14, 2012. [7] After another short offseason stint with the Shock in 2013, the Shock signed her again on March 27, 2014. [8] She went on to play two seasons for the Shock. In 2014, she played in 33 games, averaging 2.5 points and 2.9 rebounds per game. She improved in 2015, averaging 5.4 points and 4.1 rebounds per game in 34 games with six starts. In 2016 she joined the San Antonio Stars, averaging 4.0 points and 3.7 rebounds in 11 games. [9]
