Ciara Forde brings defensive edge and veteran guard savvy to Temple
Ciara Forde is a low-usage, defense-first guard whose value comes from toughness, energy, and reliability rather than volume scoring; in Temple’s 2019-20 season, she appeared in seven games, earned her first career start, logged a career-high 28 minutes at USF, and produced three rebounds and two steals in that game. She also battled back from an injury year at Bloomsburg, which adds context to her limited early college stat line. If you want a guard who can compete hard, defend, and fill minutes without forcing the action, she fits that mold.[1]
