the stretch-forward who brought size, shooting and tough minutes to K-State
In the 2022-23 season, Sarah Shematsi gave Kansas State a versatile frontcourt option, averaging 5.7 points and 3.9 rebounds while starting 30 of 36 games, and she popped in big moments with a 25-point, 11-rebound game against Oklahoma State. Her value went beyond the box score: at 6-foot-2 she could space the floor, had proven three-point range, and was trusted in pressure spots after arriving as a graduate transfer with experience from LSU and a strong junior-college résumé. If you want a forward who can stretch defenses and compete, she’s a legit fit.
