Michael Gaines brings size, shooting touch, and a useful frontcourt role for UVF
In the 2025-26 season, Michael Gaines has been a steady 6-foot-5 senior forward for Valley Forge, averaging 4.6 rebounds and shooting .444 from the field and .385 from three across 14 games, which makes him a respectable stretch-forward option rather than a pure volume scorer[3][4][6]. His best differentiator is his ability to space the floor and still rebound, with a strong 16-point outing against St. Mary’s in the 2024-25 season showing he can pop when his shot is falling[13].
