Makenzie Alapai brings gritty two-way guard play and timely shot-making for Embry-Riddle
In the 2025-26 season, Makenzie Alapai has shown she can juice the Eagles’ offense with scoring bursts, including a 17-point game with four threes and a 14-point outing on efficient free-throw shooting; she also adds playmaking and pesky defense, with games featuring multiple assists, steals, and even a team-high rebound night for a guard.[5][8][13] At 5-foot-6, her value is in pace, toughness, and composure in close games—she’s the kind of guard who can tilt momentum without needing a heavy usage load, which makes her a useful fit for a team that wants energy, shot-making, and edge.
