Schimmel played alongside her older sister, Shoni, for three years at Louisville. The sisters are from the Umatilla Indian Reservation in Oregon. Shoni, who is entering her second year in the WNBA, was drafted No. 8 in the first round by the Atlanta Dream.

During her senior year, Schimmel averaged 7.5 points per game, handed out 3.8 assists and pulled down 3.4 rebounds a contest. She helped lead Louisville to a 60-52 win over South Florida in the NCAA Tournament that sent the Cardinals to their third straight Sweet 16.
