OVC Title IX Website | NCAA Title IX Website | Feature on Watts

While most think of Brie as cheese - this Bre does not have French origins and doesn't smell half as bad!

Bre (Zanders) Watts currently resides in St. Louis, Missouri with her college sweetheart and two children. The wind blew her in from Dallas, Texas where her extended family is from. She attended Lindenwood University where she competed in women's basketball (2013-16), held office as the president of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) and was the University homecoming queen.

Watts appeared in 104 career games, including 11 starts as a senior. She shot 51.1 percent from the field for her career, and collected 291 points, 281 rebounds, and 40 blocked shots. In her final season she helped direct a young team to the conference tournament semifinals.

After her playing career she served as an assistant coach for the Lindenwood women's basketball team.

She is an active member of her community and local church. Professionally, Bre works for a Fortune 400 transportation company in logistic recruiting. Bre has done many great things in her young career, but being a mother is her greatest accomplishment. She is thankful for the opportunities athletics has given her, especially at the collegiate level.
