Alana Nelson gives Purdue Fort Wayne a high-volume, efficient frontcourt scorer
Alana Nelson has emerged as Purdue Fort Wayne’s go-to interior scoring threat, averaging 16.4 points per game while also contributing 5.2 rebounds and shooting a strong 50.4% from the field in the 2025-26 season; she also earned three Horizon League Player of the Week honors by producing efficient, high-usage games, including a 23-point outing against Cleveland State and a 26-point game versus Wright State.[9][7][6] A 5-11 graduate forward with a long track record of production at Northwood and Spring Arbor, Nelson brings proven scoring, rebounding, and veteran toughness that should translate well to a team needing an experienced, ready-made offensive presence.[10][11]
