Blasigh is a 5’9” guard originally from Udine, Italy, who will join the Hurricanes after spending the first two seasons of her college career competing for South Florida.

“Vikki is a knockdown shooter with great 3-point range and the ability to shoot off the dribble,” said Cullop. “She’s a veteran guard and a proven winner who thrives in clutch moments.”

Blasigh was an integral piece of the South Florida roster over the past two seasons, appearing in 67 games with 55 starts. She boasts career averages of 11.9 points per game on 39.7 percent shooting from the field, 34.8 percent from beyond the arc, and 82.4 percent at the free throw line, in addition to grabbing 2.6 boards and dishing out 1.6 assists per contest.

This past season, Blasigh appeared in 33 games, while making 27 starts. She helped lead South Florida to an AAC Tournament Championship and appearance in the NCAA Tournament, posting season averages of 10.4 points per game on clips of 43.6 percent shooting from the field, 36.7 percent from 3-point range, and 75.0 percent at the free throw line, while also pulling down 2.7 rebounds per game and recording 1.8 assists per contest. Blasigh reached double figures in scoring in 17 contests throughout the season, including scoring a season-high 24 points in a victory over Jacksonville (11/20/24). She knocked down multiple 3-pointers in 13 games during the 2024-25 campaign.

Blasigh had a sensational freshman campaign in 2023-24, as she was named the 2024 AAC Freshman of the Year after averaging 13.5 points per game on 36.8 percent shooting from the field, 33.8 percent from behind the arc, and 87.7 percent at the free throw line. Blasigh also averaged 2.5 boards and 2.0 assists per game. She scored in double figures in 20 games throughout the season and she was named the AAC Freshman of the Week six separate times. She scored a career-high 35 points on 13-25 shooting in a win over Tulsa (1/10/24).

Blasigh has significant international experience, as she represented Italy at the 2023 U19 FIBA Women’s World Cup, ranking fifth in scoring throughout the event after averaging 16.9 points per game. She also represented Italy in the 2023 U20 FIBA Women’s European Championships, putting up 9.1 points per game across seven contests.

Blasigh will have two years of eligibility remaining with the Hurricanes.
