Stacy Stephens was a bruising, all-around post who powered Texas to elite contention
In her Texas career from 2000-04, Stacy Stephens was a two-time AP Second-Team All-American, a 1,000-point/1,000-rebound anchor, and one of the most reliable inside presences in Longhorns history[1][3]. She averaged 12.7 points and 9.1 rebounds for her career, started all 134 games, and helped Texas reach the 2003 Final Four and win multiple Big 12 titles[1][3]. The “why care” factor is simple: she brought toughness, consistency, and production that translate to winning, especially for a team needing a true paint bully with high motor and veteran poise[1][3].
