Eleanora Villa arrived at WSU in 2023 and immediately made an impact, making the 2023-24 All-Pac-12 Freshman Team and becoming a key member of the Cougar squad.
As a freshman, Villa started 27 games. The 5-foot-8 guard established herself as a great shooter, hitting 34% of her three-point attempts and 74% of her free throws.
Villa averaged 12.9 points, 2.3 assists, 1.9 rebounds and 0.8 steals as a freshman.
She would go on to improve in each of those stats in her sophomore campaign.
In 2024-25, Villa started every game for the Cougs and continued to be a team leader. She averaged 13.6 points, 3 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 0.9 steals, while improving her shooting percentage to .442.
