She leads the LSC in blocks per game (2.09) and total blocks (48), ranking 18th and 14th nationally, respectively, as an elite rim protector. Her rebounding is just as impactful, ranking fourth in the LSC in total rebounds (202) and fifth in rebounds per game (8.8), while sitting second in offensive rebounds per game (3.5), creating second-chance opportunities.
