Mariah Hardy is Bucknell’s rising interior piece with real two-way upside
In the 2025-26 season, freshman forward Mariah Hardy has emerged as a steady, physical post presence for Bucknell, averaging 2.6 points and 2.3 rebounds in 7.3 minutes per game while shooting 53.3% from the field. She’s already shown flashes of a useful inside-out game, including a career-high 14 points later in the season and an early game with 11 points, 9 rebounds, 2 blocks, and her first three-pointer. Bucknell coaches have called her a late bloomer with versatile potential, and her high-motor rebounding, size, and competitive edge make her a nice fit for a team needing a gritty, developmental forward.
