Back to EpisodesSteele Venters Transfers to UW, Seeking NCAA Waiver
Description
Steele Venters, a six-foot-seven wing from Ellensburg, Washington, is transferring to the University of Washington for the 2026-2027 season. After four years at Eastern Washington and three at Gonzaga, this home-state move marks the end of his college career on the west side. Venters, who started as a walk-on at Eastern Washington, averaged 16.7 points and shot 43.4% from three as a redshirt sophomore. He won Big Sky Player of the Year in his junior year and led the Eagles to 23 wins and an NIT bid. Injuries, however, limited his time at Gonzaga, and he now needs an NCAA medical waiver for a fifth year of eligibility. The University of Washington gains a proven shooter and local talent, while Gonzaga continues to rebuild their wings.
