Kate Mocho is a young, defensive-minded guard with breakout upside for Ithaca
In the 2025-26 season, Kate Mocho was a first-year guard for Ithaca who made her college debut against William Smith, finishing with 2 points and 2 rebounds in 8 minutes, then earned short rotation minutes in later games as well. Her appeal is projectable guard value: small-frame quickness, fresh legs, and a strong prep résumé at Saint Joseph Academy, where she was a senior captain and the team’s Offensive Player of the Year in 2025. If your team wants a gritty, developing backcourt piece rather than an instant-volume scorer, she’s the kind of buy-low, high-energy fit that can grow into more.
