STORRS, Conn. – The UConn women's basketball team added guard Marine Dursus to the 2026-27 roster, head coach Geno Auriemma announced Friday.

"It's exciting to find players who naturally are blessed with the ability to score," Auriemma said. "I think Marine's greatest assets are she plays exceptionally hard, she's competitive and she's used to playing at a high level. She gives us another scorer, which fills a need for us. We're thrilled that we could add her to our roster."

A native of Strasbourg, France, Dursus is a 5-foot-10 shooting guard. She has represented the French Youth National Team since 2021.

Dursus won gold at the 2024 FIBA U20 EuroBasket, silver at the 2023 FIBA U18 Women's European Championship and bronze at the 2022 FIBA U17 Basketball World Cup and U18 European Championship.
