Yar Tong brings size, touch, and defensive juice to UT Martin
In the 2025-26 season, Yar Tong flashed as a 6-3 forward who can rebound, protect the rim, and stretch the floor a bit—she averaged 4.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 0.7 blocks per game while earning OVC Freshman of the Week honors after a 17-point, 6-rebound outing on 7-of-9 shooting. What makes her interesting is the combo package: length, energy, and a track record of overcoming an injury-hit path before emerging at UT Martin. She looks like a smart fit for a team needing a high-motor frontcourt piece with upside.
