Indiana women’s basketball will host 2017 recruits Milan Bolden-Morris, Aubrey Knight and Kamaria McDaniel on official visits this weekend, TheHoosier.com has learned.

Bolden-Morris has averaged 16.8 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 2.2 steals per game over her three-year high school career thus far. The West Palm Beach, Florida, native is a 6-foot forward and ranks No. 21 among Florida players by MaxPreps.

Last February, Morris became Cardinal Newman High School's all-time leading scorer.

Knight, who hails from Ventura, California, is listed as a 6-foot-1 power forward on her Hudl profile. She helped Ventura High School to its second sectional title in three seasons last year en route to being named the conference's co-MVP. She also earned the MVP nod the previous season.

Knight's strong play continued into the summer AAU season. Back in July, for example, she was named the Tournament MVP of the Cal Storm National Showcase while playing for Team Taurasi.

Unlike the two recruits visiting Bloomington with her, McDaniel plays in the backcourt and not the frontcourt. The Dearborn Heights, Michigan, native is listed as a 5-foot-10 point guard on her Hudl profile.

McDaniel averaged 20 points, five rebounds and four assists per game for Robichaud Senior High School to earn a spot on the Detroit Free Press All-West First Team.

Indiana is looking to make a splash on the recruiting trail in this current cycle and the ones to come after going 21-12 last season, including an undefeated 14-0 at Assembly Hall, before losing to Notre Dame in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.

Third-year head coach Teri Moren was named the Big Ten's Coach of the Year last season despite inheriting a team she mostly had no say in forming. With results like last season's in her back pocket, she'll be hoping recruits like the three set to be in Bloomington this weekend begin to take notice.
