Vermont’s steady, high-IQ backcourt engine
Emma Utterback is a proven all-conference guard who has been one of Vermont’s most reliable creators and leaders, finishing her career with 1,796 points, 522 assists, and program-record durability with 136 games played. In the 2023-24 season, she averaged 14.3 points, 3.9 assists, and 2.8 rebounds while shooting 43.5% from the floor, and she earned America East Tournament Most Outstanding Player honors after a strong postseason run. Her biggest differentiators are pace control, playmaking, and composure under pressure—she looks like a coach’s favorite because she can organize an offense, score when needed, and bring veteran toughness without needing the spotlight.
