Vanessa Taylor brings two-way wing defense and steady backcourt production to Elon
Taylor is a reliable, defense-first guard for Elon who has shown she can create value beyond scoring: in the 2023-24 season she started 26 of 27 games, averaged 5.6 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.3 steals, and finished second on the team in steals while ranking among the CAA leaders in that category. She fits best as a high-motor connector who can pressure the ball, rebound her position, and make winning plays; her career-best 17-point outing and 5-steal game show a useful ceiling when her offense is rolling.[1]
