Mariah Clayton is an efficient, physical ODU forward with breakout upside
Mariah Clayton’s 2025-26 outlook at Old Dominion is built on real juice: after averaging 5.4 points and 3.5 rebounds in the 2024-25 season, she flashed a ceiling with a 28-point, 10-rebound career night in a win over Coastal Carolina in February 2026. She looks like a good fit for teams that want a forward who plays with energy, finishes efficiently, and can grow into a bigger offensive role; the big question is consistency and volume, but the athleticism, rebounding, and emerging scoring punch are hard to ignore.
