The Cincinnati, Ohio native, will conclude her basketball career at the end of the 2024 season.

She graduated from Cincinnati’s Mount Notre Dame High School and enrolled in Pre-Medical Studies at the University of Iowa in 2019. She plans to finish the Degree in Occupational Therapy Program after the season ends. Here’s all you need to know about her!

Gabbie Marshall’s parents, Ernest and Marne, used to play basketball when they were young. Ernest reportedly played four years of college basketball for the Bellarmine University Knights.
