The Gonzaga duo of twin sisters Kaylynne and Kayleigh Truong is a big reason why the Zags find themselves in the Sweet 16 for the first time since 2015. The duo arrived at Gonzaga in 2019 and could have left after last season.
Gonzaga guard Kaylynne Truong celebrates the team’s win against Utah in a second-round college basketball game in the NCAA Tournament in Spokane, Wash., Monday, March 25, 2024. CORRECTS TO KAYLYNNE TRUONG, INSTEAD OF KAYLEIGH TRUONG - Gonzaga guard Kaylynne Truong and UC Irvine guard Deja Lee, right, go after the ball during the second half of a first-round college basketball game in the women’s NCAA Tournament in Spokane, Wash., Saturday, March 23, 2024.
Gonzaga guard Kayleigh Truong gestures after scoring against UC Irvine during the second half of a first-round college basketball game in the women's NCAA Tournament in Spokane, Wash., Saturday, March 23, 2024. With her sister out, Kaylynne became the West Coast Conference player of the year and an honorable mention AP All-American during the 2022-23 season. Because of the missed opportunity to start together, and with several other key players choosing to return — including Eliza Hollingsworth and Brynna Maxwell — the pair decided to take advantage of the opportunity and get one more year together in college.
For Fortier having the duo on the court gives her a level of comfort where she doesn’t have to do that much coaching with all the experience they have.
