Stephanie Youdath Class: Junior Hometown: Mentor, Ohio High School: Eastlake North Last College: Marist Height: 6-4 Position: C

Stephanie Youdath is chomping at the bit after sitting out last season to fulfill NCAA residency requirements, following her transfer from Marist. A finesse post with a wide array of quality moves and soft hands, she has the ability to run the floor and finish. In addition, her wingspan allows Youdath to alter and block shots on the defensive end. She will give the Vikings a strong presence in the middle.
