Emilea Preece gives UVA Wise a stretch-big spark with real upside
Emilea Preece, a 6-foot-1 forward/center for Virginia-Wise, showed real scoring punch in the 2025-26 season, highlighted by a career-high 22 points with six threes in a February 2026 win over Carson-Newman, plus four rebounds, two assists and three blocks. She’s a tough-fit piece for opponents because she can step outside, punish mismatches and still bring frontcourt size. The broader takeaway: she looks like a versatile, high-energy big whose shooting touch and confidence make her more than a traditional post player.
