Tori Rubel brings defense, boards, and winning energy to Columbia
Rubel has been a reliable frontcourt piece for Columbia, earning 2025-26 AMC Defensive Player of the Year honors while averaging 5.2 points and 6.7 rebounds per game and ranking second on the team in rebounds with 168. She’s not just a stat line; she gives the Cougars toughness, defensive discipline, and hustle that show up in wins, including multiple strong postseason outings. If your team wants a hard-nosed forward who rebounds, defends, and plays with consistent edge, she fits the bill nicely.
