Melody Kempton is one of the better bench players on the West Coast. She is the ultimate do-it-all sixth woman for a Gonzaga team that is loaded with talent. Her stat line of 7.0 points and 4.3 rebounds may not leap off the page, but the 6’1 forward provides very little drop-off when the Wirth sisters hit the bench, and her consistency and effort on both ends of the court make her extremely valuable.
Kempton has played in all 65 games her first two seasons as a Bulldog, averaging 13.7 minutes as a freshman and 20.7 minutes last year.
