Stanford's Rebounding Titan and Regional MVP (2013-14)
Mikaela Ruef, Stanford's 6'3" forward, dominated as Regional Most Outstanding Player in 2013-14, averaging 14.0 points, 11.0 rebounds, and 4.0 assists in key NCAA tournament wins over Penn State and North Carolina. Known as a tough, consistent competitor with relentless intensity, she grabbed 21.3 rebounds per game in the 2024 NBL1 North season—including a jaw-dropping 33-rebound outing and three triple-doubles—proving her elite board-crashing and versatility. Post-college WNBL champion and NBL1 star, her physicality and leadership make her an ideal fit for teams needing a gritty, high-impact frontcourt anchor.
