Mendelson brings size, versatility, and high-end two-sport toughness to Penn State
In the 2025-26 season, Maggie Mendelson averaged 2.0 points and 3.3 rebounds for Penn State while contributing across the box score with 12 assists, 10 blocks, and 5 steals on the year, showing the kind of switchable frontcourt value coaches love[1][2]. At 6-foot-5, her best calling card is length and versatility: she can rebound, protect the rim, and do the gritty glue work that doesn’t always scream on a stat sheet[1][2]. The big context kicker is her two-sport elite pedigree—she’s also an All-American volleyball player—so her competitiveness, durability, and team-first mentality are the real selling points for any roster[5][7].
