Iona’s old-school post presence with a bruising, high-effort edge
In the 2002-03 season, Jessica Attinelly was a 6-2 center who anchored Iona’s frontcourt with an effective post game, strong free-throw generation, and a reputation for wearing down opponents; Iona’s preview also noted she had been shooting close to 50% from the floor for her career and over 72% from the line in the previous two seasons. Her value is the combo package coaches love: interior toughness, efficient scoring, and relentless physicality. If you want a paint anchor who battles, rebounds, and makes life miserable for opposing bigs, she fits.
