Moore’s background
A native of New York City, Moore joined the program in the summer. She played a total of 45 minutes on the season, mostly late in games, with nine games played against Big Ten opponents.
She had her best performance in her collegiate debut, setting season highs with four points and four rebounds in a season-opening win over Wagner.
Rutgers added Moore late in the recruiting process in June, becoming the second commitment of the 2025 class. Former head coach Coquese Washington said at the program’s media day in October, they were scouting her NY Gauchos AAU team – one of the more notable programs in the Metro area – and first had thought the six-foot guard was a 2026 recruit. After realizing she was, in fact, a senior set to graduate from high school in June, things “came together quickly.” Moore starred at Nazareth in Brooklyn, leading the team to a state title and averaging over 20 points per game while going largely underrecruited. She had previously played at South Shore in Brooklyn.
Moore will have three years of eligibility remaining after her freshman season in New Jersey.
