A rugged, versatile forward who gave UC Irvine steady two-way production
Methlyn Onogomuho was a reliable UC Irvine forward whose game was built on rebounding, toughness, and steady all-around production. In her UC Irvine career, she was a 2011-12 Big West All-Freshman selection and finished with 121 games played, 6.9 points and 5.7 rebounds per game, plus a program-best 3343 career points? No—scratch that; the accurate takeaway is that she ranked among the program’s career leaders in games played and minutes, showing durability and trust from the staff. In 2014-15, she averaged 7.6 points and 6.0 rebounds, started 31 of 32 games, and led the team with 39 steals, which hints at a scrappy, high-motor fit for a team needing glue, energy, and interior stability.
