Besides missing her family and “good sushi,” Tay believes playing overseas is definitely a worthwhile experience.

“I would definitely recommend playing in Europe,” Tay says. “I’m having a great time. It’s not for everyone, but I would recommend everyone to try it for a year.”

According to Rollins, Tay may be also ready to look elsewhere for a career as she enters her third year in Europe with a full-time job at an American military base.

Another former Harvard standout, Allison Feaster ’98, currently plays in Spain after spending 10 years in the WNBA.

So as Berry weighs her options, she will look towards these players for advice, having already been in touch with many of them.

“Reaching out to the past Harvard alumni has been a huge help,” Berry says. “I would really like to pursue a career, just go for the experience, and try out something new.”

Right now, she would like to have an experience more like Rollins’ that serves as a transitional period.

But Berry is open to the possibility of continuing the dream and indefinitely postponing that entrance into the real world.

“You never know,” she says. “If I have a great experience, it could always go for longer.”
