rookie depth guard with upside in McMurry’s backcourt
Rhyia Ray enters the 2025-26 season as a freshman guard for McMurry, and the early stat line is tiny but telling: she has already logged game action, which suggests she is in the mix for rotation minutes rather than buried on the bench[1][7]. What makes her interesting is the guard profile and the developmental upside—she brings ball-handling backcourt depth to a team that already leans on guard-heavy lineups, and her recruiting background points to a player with scoring-and-playmaking instincts from the high-school level[7][10]. If you need immediate production, the sample is too small to overread; if you want a young guard who can grow into a useful connector and pace-setter, she’s worth tracking[1][6].
