Fifth-Year Guard Delivers Scoring Surge and Double-Double Finish for UCF
Kristol Ayson, a fifth-year guard for the UCF Knights, stands out for her late-season intensity and scoring consistency, averaging 6.8 points per game in Big 12 contests and scoring in double digits for five consecutive games to end the 2025-26 season. Her differentiators include a season-high 16 points with a rare double-double (10 rebounds) in the finale against Houston and leading the team in scoring against Utah with 15 points. While her shooting efficiency from beyond the arc is modest (21.1%), her resilience—starting 19 of 30 games and leading the Knights in 10 contests—shows high intensity and team leadership. Ayson is a reliable fit for teams needing a veteran guard who elevates in conference play, brings playoff-ready experience, and delivers under pressure, despite a history of limited deep-shot volume.
