Nicole Lukito is a double-double machine with star-level rebounding impact
In the 2025-26 season, Nicole Lukito emerged as UC Merced’s engine, averaging 13.7 points and a league-best 11.0 rebounds while earning All-CCAA First Team honors. She pairs elite board work with real finishing touch, career 3-point range, and playmaking for a forward, plus big-game proof like a 33-point outing and a program-record triple-double. She’s the kind of high-motor, physical, do-everything frontcourt piece who can change a team’s rebounding identity fast.
