🎙️ What Division II Coaches Really Look For: Recruiting with Bet Naumovski 🏀

In Part 2 of this conversation, Matt Rogers sits down with world-class coach Bet Naumovski to unpack what NCAA Division II coaches are truly looking for in the recruiting process.

Drawing from decades of experience building championship teams at Queens College, Bet offers an honest, behind-the-scenes look at how Division II recruiting really works—why fit matters more than flash, how coaches evaluate potential beyond stats, and what recruits and families often misunderstand about opportunities at this level.

Bet also shares her lifelong commitment to advocating for equity in women’s sports and how that perspective shapes the way she recruits, develops, and supports student-athletes. This episode provides clarity, perspective, and practical guidance for anyone navigating the college basketball recruiting journey.
