Debra Ferguson brought rim size and quiet efficiency to Virginia
In the 2015-16 season, Virginia center Debra Ferguson played a limited but useful role, appearing in 15 games and posting 17 points with 17 rebounds, while ESPN listed her at 6-foot-4 with the ability to contribute inside as a shot-blocking presence[1][2]. Her real differentiator was frontcourt size and a tough, team-first profile: Virginia’s own coverage noted she was a high-character local product from Madison Heights, and her high school résumé included 13.9 points, 8.6 rebounds, and 2.0 blocks per game as a senior[2][3].
