Agnew Expands Professional Career, Signing with Russian Spartak Vidnoye Squad

Omaha, Neb. -- Creighton's Jaylyn Agnew will have continue on her path to walk in the footsteps of greatness as the Kansas native agreed to a contract with Spartak Vidnoye Moscow Region. Agnew will play in Vidnoye, Moscow on the same team that once saw all-time greats like Sue Bird, Tamika Catchings, Becky Hammon and Diana Taurasi play.

While the season typically begins in late September and runs until early March, the 2020-21 season could be impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. Having recently traveled to Florida to play the WNBA season for the Atlanta Dream, Agnew will travel to Moscow following the conclusion of the Dream's shortened 2020 campaign.

Joining Agnew on the Spartak Vidnoye team will be another midwestern player as Kansas State's Peyton Williams also inked a deal for the 2020-21 season.

"I am so excited and grateful to be a part of the Spartak basketball team," noted Agnew. "With their history of having great players be a part of this program, I am honored to be able to follow in their footsteps."
