Chattanooga's Brooke Anya: Defensive Versatility and Rebounding Anchor in Development
Brooke Anya is a **defensive-minded forward** who averaged 7.5 points and 4.3 rebounds per game in the 2024-25 season while playing 20.4 minutes per contest for Chattanooga. Her calling card is **elite perimeter defense**—she averaged 2.0 steals per game and posted a season-high four steals against Monmouth. Anya also demonstrated shot-blocking ability (four blocks vs. NJIT) and rebounding consistency, including a career-high 13 rebounds against Howard. While her offensive efficiency needs development (35% FG, 25% from three), her **two-way intensity and versatility** make her valuable for teams prioritizing defensive depth and rebounding at the forward position.
