Summer Hicks brings rebound-first forward production and championship-tested toughness to West Alabama
In the 2024–25 season at Chattahoochee Valley, Summer Hicks averaged 4.1 points and 4.4 rebounds in 27 games while shooting 44.4% from the field, and she reached a career-high 27 points against Reid State, showing she can spike offensively when the matchup opens up[1][2]. She also helped lead Chattahoochee Valley to the 2024–25 JUCO championship, and West Alabama included her on its 2025–26 newcomers watchlist, a strong sign of trust in her energy, toughness, and board-crashing fit as a 5'11" forward[2][5]. The appeal here is clear: she’s a physical, high-motor frontcourt piece who can rebound, finish, and bring winning-game experience, even if her three-point shooting is still a work in progress[1][2].
