Big West Scoring Leader & First-Team All-Conference Guard Who Transformed from Bench to Nation’s Top 5 Scorer
Hannah Wickstrom, a 5'10" sophomore guard from Melbourne, Australia, is UC Riverside’s offensive engine, leading the Big West with 23.5 points per game in the 2025-26 season while ranking fifth nationally in scoring [2][5]. Her differentiators include elite efficiency (49.9% FG, 84.8% FT), rare versatility as the only Big West player averaging 20+ points with 7.3 rebounds and 2.8 assists, and a dramatic leap from 7.7 ppg as a bench freshman to starting every game [2][5][9]. Wickstrom’s intensity is unmatched—she accounted for over half of UCR’s offense in a 31-point loss at UC Davis and posted a career-high 36 points against Hawaiʻi [2][10]. Earned First-Team All-Big West honors and three Player-of-the-Week awards, she’s a high-impact, clutch performer with Australian grit and a proven ability to elevate team performance. Ideal for teams needing a primary scorer who can also rebound and defend at guard level.
