Alexia Nelson Brings a Steady, Two-Way Guard Presence to Saint Louis
Nelson is a proven perimeter guard who should help SLU immediately: in the 2023-24 season at Towson, she started all 31 games and averaged 9.8 points per game, and in 2025-26 she is listed at 11.5 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game for the Billikens.[1][2][3] The biggest differentiator is reliability—she has been a full-time starter, scores in double figures, and offers a balanced stat line rather than being a one-trick scorer, which makes her a good fit for teams needing a composed, experienced connector in the backcourt.[1][2][3]
