Liene Jekabsone brings proven rebounding value and low-usage reliability to FIU
Liene Jekabsone has been a dependable frontcourt presence for FIU, with documented seasons showing she can impact games on the glass and provide efficient, low-mistake minutes rather than empty volume. In her FIU career notes, she averaged 1.9 points and 2.6 rebounds per game in 2010-11, while earlier FIU coverage also identified her as a rebounding leader, including a 10-rebound outing and a stretch where she averaged 5.9 rebounds per game. She fits best as a gritty role player who adds toughness, size, and board work.
