Sharpshooting Transfer Ignites Western Carolina in 2025-26
The 5-8 sophomore guard Betsey Burnett has electrified Western Carolina's lineup in the 2025-26 season, averaging 7.5 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 0.7 assists while shooting 30.9% from the field per ESPN stats; a transfer from JUCO powerhouse Johnson C. Smith where she posted 13.6 PPG, 41.7% FG, and 38.3% from three as a sophomore, Burnett dazzles with elite long-range sniping (56% HS 3PT) and fearless intensity against D1 foes—like her 14-point explosion vs. Gardner-Webb. Fearless competitor with rebounding grit for her size; prime fit for teams craving spacing and clutch scoring punch.
