On a 24-win Stewartville squad loaded with top-end talent, Ruffridge’s role is far less glamorous but no less important. Addison is a grinder down low, the kind of big body who can control the paint and make space for her teammates to grab headlines. She’s practically averaging a double-double. Why? Because she keeps the game simple, does the little things all quality post players do, and relishes contact. She has learned how to create space and leverage her assets to dominate others inside. Ruffridge plays with poise and the composure of a veteran and now moves up a remarkable 79 places in our rankings.
