Jemma Eleby brings two-way versatility and a rising offensive ceiling for James Madison
In the 2025-26 season, freshman forward Jemma Eleby has shown enough all-around skill to project as a valuable connector piece: she played in 14 games and averaged 3.3 points, with a strong recruiting profile built on scoring, rebounding, passing and ball-handling for a 6-0 forward.[7][14] James Madison signed her as a skilled, smart forward who can score, pass, rebound and bring the ball up the floor, and her high school résumé included 16.7 points, 11.4 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 2.1 steals per game plus consecutive TCIS titles.[10] If you want a versatile, switchable forward with upside rather than a finished product, she fits the mold.
