Lauryn Stover brings veteran hustle, defensive bite, and timely shooting to Mercyhurst
In the 2025-26 season, Lauryn Stover is a senior forward for Mercyhurst who has been a low-usage, high-energy piece: 1.3 points, 0.9 rebounds, 0.4 assists and 0.3 steals per game, with a rough 17.9% field-goal rate but a steadier 73.7% free-throw mark. Her value shows up less in box-score volume and more in glue-player traits — she’s been praised for clutch shot-making in Mercyhurst’s OT win over Central State, where she hit two threes and a layup to help seal it. She looks like a fit for teams needing a tough, experienced role player who competes, spaces the floor in flashes, and won’t get rattled when the game gets messy.
