The post which Cheli reshared also included a brief description of Bramer's basketball background:

"Belle Bramer is a talented 6'1" guard/forward from Los Gatos, California and Taiwan currently playing for Lehigh University … With a sharp basketball IQ and a strong academic background, she continues to grow as a dynamic and reliable presence for the Mountain Hawks!!!"

Morgan Cheli and Belle Bramer were teammates at Archbishop Mitty High School in San Jose, California, before joining college. Part of the 2024 recruiting class, Cheli joined the UConn Huskies, while Bramer committed to the Lehigh Mountain Hawks.

Cheli appeared in 24 games for the Huskies as a freshman last season, averaging 2.5 points and 2.4 rebounds. Bramer, on the other hand, played 31 games but only averaged 10.9 minutes, averaging 4.1 ppg and 1.6 rpg.

Strong played a pivotal role in UConn's championship run last season, averaging 16.4 ppg, 8.9 rpg and 3.6 apg. She played and started in all 40 games for Geno Auriemma's squad, including the championship game against the South Carolina Gamecocks.

The Huskies will return to the court in November for the 2025-26 season, where they will look to defend their national title. They added USC transfer Kayleigh Heckel and Wisconsin transfer Serah Williams to bolster their roster this offseason.
