Morgan Kottka is Bard’s floor-spacing rookie with a scorer’s touch
In the 2025-26 season, Morgan Kottka emerged as a reliable first-year forward for Bard, highlighted by an 11-point debut on 4-of-7 shooting with 3-of-4 from deep, plus a later 12-point, 10-rebound double-double that showed real two-way juice.[1][3][4][5] The standout trait is her stretch ability—Bard praised her for “stretching the floor,” and she earned Liberty League Rookie of the Week after a polished opener, which suggests she’s a useful fit for a team that values shooting, toughness, and ready-made energy more than pure bulk.[1][4][5][6]
