Ruth Hamblin is Oregon State’s shot-blocking anchor in the paint
Hamblin stands out as a rare rim-protecting center who paired elite interior defense with efficient scoring and rebounding for Oregon State, including a season with 12.9 points, 8.6 rebounds, and 122 blocks while setting the Beavers’ single-season rebound record at 370.[1] Her upside goes beyond stats: she was a physical, high-motor presence who could take over games defensively, and her record-night performances showed real dominance when opponents tried to attack the rim.[3][6] She fits best for a team needing size, toughness, and a true paint deterrent.[1][3]
