The junior forward often only reveals her competitiveness to those who know her best.
Stephanie Jones reels in an offensive rebound against Illinois. By Ava Wallace Ava Wallace Reporter covering local colleges and universities Email Bio Follow March 7 at 2:58 PM Perched on a chair at Xfinity Center last week, Stephanie Jones folded her hands in her lap, cast her gaze down and smiled as she recounted one particularly brazen move from Maryland’s Feb. 25 game against Purdue.
Even in the category of Joneses at Maryland, fans may first think of Jones’s sister Brionna, a former all-American who helped lead the Terps to the Final Four in 2015 and 2016. “Basically, Steph does a lot for us, and I don’t think she gets the credit she deserves,” Charles said in College Park this week. “She’s the unsung hero of our team.”
“She’s a starter, but she’s like that sixth man that everybody needs,” said freshman center Shakira Austin, who also mentioned Jones’s importance as a mentor to the team’s young post players. “She’s always in the right spot, always puts the team first, and can still get like 17 points in a game. It might be a silent 17, but without that, we wouldn’t have won.”
