URI’s elite-volume shooter and academic standout
Phillips is a high-value guard because she combines proven long-range scoring with durability, leadership, and consistency: she set Rhode Island’s all-time 3-point record with 238 makes, broke the single-season mark with 89 threes in 2023-24, and followed that with a 2024-25 season averaging 9.5 points while leading the Rams in scoring in seven games.[1][6][8] Beyond the box score, she’s been praised as a two-time captain and Atlantic 10 All-Academic selection, which suggests a reliable, coachable player who can stretch the floor and fit a structured team environment.[4][6][8]
