When Kyiah Prestridge stepped onto the University of Arkansas campus, she carried more than a suitcase; she brought a relentless drive that would soon set her apart.
At just 18, the freshman guard is among the youngest on the Razorbacks roster, but her age belies a maturity that coaches have praised.

A Promising Start
Coaches and senior players alike have noted her willingness to put in extra hours, a trait that bodes well for her development and the team’s depth heading into the upcoming season.
