Anastasia Hayes brings veteran shot-creation and SEC poise to Mississippi State
Anastasia Hayes is a high-IQ, 5-foot-7 graduate guard who gives Mississippi State an experienced downhill scorer and playmaker; in the 2022-23 season, she averaged 8.2 points, 4.6 assists, and 3.3 rebounds per game, and earlier at Mississippi State she earned All-SEC and Nancy Lieberman Award watch-list recognition after leading the Bulldogs in scoring at 18.6 points per game in 2022-23. Her differentiators are pace control, pressure on the rim, and steady table-setting—plus a track record of producing in big moments. If a team needs a battle-tested guard who can organize offense and make smart reads, she’s a strong fit.
