Kayla Houston is carving out a steady role for Defiance in 2025-26
Houston, a 5-foot-8 freshman forward, has already shown she can contribute right away for the Yellow Jackets, averaging 8.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.0 steals in 2 games this 2025-26 season while logging 31.0 minutes per game.[1] The early read: active hands, willingness to defend, and a guard-like impact from a frontcourt spot make her more than a box-score name, though her shooting has been uneven so far (31.6% from the field, 36.4% at the line).[1] If you want energy, versatility, and a player who looks comfortable doing the little things, Houston is worth a closer look.
