the do-it-all, glue-girl big who brought rebounding, rim protection, and reliability to Fairfield
In the 2005-06 season, Clare Faurote averaged 4.0 points, 5.1 rebounds, and a team-best 33 blocks for Fairfield, while earning captaincy and the team’s “Loyalty” Award three times — a strong sign of toughness, trust, and day-to-day impact that goes beyond box scores[1][4]. She profiles as a physical, dependable interior player who protected the rim, crashed the glass, and stayed ready when the Stags needed work done, which is exactly the kind of low-drama, high-value piece coaches love[1].
