a defensive-minded Gaels guard with real grit
Anthony Woodards is best remembered as a stopper-type guard for Saint Mary’s, not a high-usage scorer: in the 2002-03 season he played in all 27 games after a broken foot in the summer and averaged 3.7 points and 2.7 rebounds while anchoring the Gaels’ defense. He stood out for toughness, accountability, and “chip-on-the-shoulder” energy—exactly the kind of player coaches trust when they want physical on-ball pressure, effort, and reliability more than flash. If your team needs edge, defense, and buy-in, he fits.
