Maria Albiero brings elite playmaking and veteran poise to BYU
A crafty, pass-first guard, Maria Albiero was a program cornerstone at BYU, finishing her Cougar career with 146 games played, 346 assists, and a strong 1.79 assist-to-turnover ratio, while ranking among the program’s all-time leaders in minutes and starts. In the 2026 international window, she also showed she can still run an offense for Brazil, averaging 4.7 assists in the FIBA Olympic Pre-Qualifying Tournament. If you want a steady connector who values ball security, leadership, and high-IQ decision-making over empty stats, she is the kind of guard every good team can use.
