Sophomore Sensation Lighting Up River States with Elite Scoring & Playmaking
Grace Stapleton, the 5'5" sophomore guard for IU Southeast Grenadiers, exploded for 21.5 PPG on 59.3% FG and 46.2% 3PT, plus 7.0 RPG, 4.5 APG, and 2.5 SPG in back-to-back wins (Dec 8-14, 2025), earning River States Offensive POY honors—her best college week yet[3]. From Eastern Hancock HS where she snagged 1st Team All-Conference nods, this quick, right-handed combo guard brings fearless intensity, sharpshooting range, and lockdown defense that elevates any lineup. No injury red flags; she's a steal for teams needing a dynamic, high-IQ sparkplug who thrives in fast-paced systems.
