Freshman guard with upside, but still an early blank slate
Amber Bateman enters the 2026-27 season as a freshman guard for Concordia Texas, with the profile of a high-character, high-upside addition: she was a varsity captain, all-conference honorable mention, scholar-athlete, and valedictorian at St. Croix Falls HS, and also brings a 5-year water-ski background that hints at balance and toughness. Official team and roster pages list her on the 2025-26/2026-27 squad, but no college season stats are available yet, so the fit question is more about projection than production. She looks like a dependable culture piece and developmental guard rather than a stat-sheet certainty.
