Emma Blair is USC Upstate’s reliable two-way glue piece
In the 2025-26 season, Emma Blair gave USC Upstate steady frontcourt production while also stacking up major academic honors: 3.9 points, 3.7 rebounds, 46.0% shooting, and 10 blocks in 32 games, plus Big South Scholar-Athlete of the Year recognition. She’s a 6-3 redshirt sophomore forward who brings size, rebounding, efficient scoring, and quiet toughness—two straight season-high 12-point games show she can chip in when needed, but her real appeal is as a high-IQ, low-drama connector who fits winning teams that value defense, effort, and consistency.
