Fiona Connolly is Valpo’s engine room with a scorer’s touch and a playmaker’s pulse
In the 2025-26 season, senior guard Fiona Connolly has been a steady two-way presence for Valparaiso, leading the team at 11.7 points per game and adding 0.9 steals per game while logging heavy minutes and starting every game[7][10]. Her value goes beyond the box score: Valpo’s roster notes credit her with a strong assist profile, a knack for getting the first pass right, and a competitive edge that showed up in multiple double-figure scoring nights and several steal-heavy performances[12][13]. If a team wants a poised guard who can create, defend, and keep the offense organized, she fits the brief nicely[12][13].
