Macey Huard Is Coming Home to Washington, and the Husky Legacy Just Got Deeper

The Huard family's reign over the University of Washington just got another chapter. Macey Huard announced Friday morning that she's transferring to the UW women's basketball team, and this isn't just another roster addition. This is family business. Her parents wore the purple and gold, her uncles wore it, and now she's stepping into that same lineage with a social media post that said it all: The Legacy Continues.

A Guard with Pedigree

Huard is a 6-foot-2 guard from Highland Ranch, Colorado, who spent the last couple of years bouncing between Montana and Oklahoma State. Last season at Oklahoma State, she appeared in 31 games and made three starts as a sophomore, averaging 6.4 points and 3.5 rebounds while shooting 39.5% from the field. Before that, she logged 32 games as a freshman at Montana in the 2023-24 season, putting up 7.4 points and 2.9 rebounds off the bench.

She missed the entire 2025-26 season after dealing with a foot injury in preseason that required November surgery. Now healthy and eligible to contribute, she'll arrive in Seattle as a junior with two seasons of eligibility remaining. That's a meaningful piece of depth for the Huskies program.

This transfer isn't just about talent. It's about family. Macey's mother, Molly (maiden name Hills), played four years at Washington from 1995 to 1999, made two NCAA tournament trips, and averaged 3.0 points and 1.9 rebounds in 89 games as a 5-foot-9 guard. Molly's sister Heidi also suited up for the Huskies from 1992 to 1995. On the football side, Macey's father Brock was a three-year starter at quarterback from 1996 to 1998 and still stands as one of the greatest QBs in UW history. He threw for 6,391 yards, 53 touchdowns and 31 interceptions, breaking his brother's all-time passing record of 5,886 yards and finishing his career holding 20 UW records.

Now it's Macey's turn to write her own story in Seattle. The Huskies are getting a healthy guard who's played college basketball at two Power Five programs and comes with championship DNA running through her veins.
