Gritty Transfer Forward Powering UW-Stout's Blue Devils Surge
Sophomore forward Emily Coonrod, a 5'11" Hastings, MN native, transferred from UW-Superior to UW-Stout after earning UMAC Academic All-Conference honors in 2024-25, where she averaged 6.8 minutes, 23 points, and 14 rebounds as a freshman[1][4]. Now thriving in 2025-26 with Stout at 6-2, she iced a blowout win over her former Yellowjackets squad with clutch free throws amid a dominant 20-0 fourth-quarter run[3]. Her seamless adaptation, poise under pressure, and academic grit make her a versatile, high-energy fit for teams needing reliable depth and leadership—care about her because she's just heating up in DIII.[1][2][3]
