Ella Riggs brings proven scoring punch and defensive playmaking to Purdue Fort Wayne
Ella Riggs is a 5-9 redshirt junior guard whose best trait is a track record of creating offense and disrupting opponents: as a junior she averaged 23.7 points, 7.8 rebounds and 3.1 steals per game, and she was a four-time all-conference pick and two-time conference Player of the Year before joining Purdue Fort Wayne.[2] In 2025-26, her box-score production has been more modest at 4.1 points, 2.1 rebounds and 0.6 assists per game, but she still flashed efficient shot-making by matching the program field-goal percentage record with a 10-for-11 outing against Aquinas.[4][1]
