Katy Hoover brings local scoring pedigree and steady backcourt upside to UVA Wise
Katy Hoover is a 5-foot-7 guard from Christiansburg, Va., who arrived at UVA Wise with a proven scorer’s résumé: her high school bio says she was Christiansburg’s all-time leading scorer and a twice-named Montgomery County Player of the Year. Her early college profile suggests a guard who can add poise, shot creation, and perimeter versatility rather than just raw size. In the 2025-26 season, she was a freshman on the Highland Cavaliers roster, and by 2026-27 she is listed as a sophomore, which signals program trust and developmental upside. If your team wants a crafty, local, competitive guard with real bucket-getting instincts, she’s worth a close look.
