Talia Baptiste brings high-upside backcourt depth for FDU
Baptiste is a local, high-IQ guard who gives FDU a developmental backcourt piece with a strong pedigree: she scored 1,023 career points at Columbia High School, ranked among the school’s top 10 scorers, and was a first-team all-conference selection before joining the Knights.[3] In her 2024-25 FDU season, she appeared in 13 games and scored her first career point against Mercyhurst, indicating early-role minutes rather than headline production.[3] Her appeal is upside, toughness, and versatility—plus the kind of steady, team-first profile coaches like to build with.[3][6]
