Isabella Spence is this week's Tuesday Teammate of the Week!

Spence is in her first season with Santa Fe Women's Basketball in 2025-26 after spending the 2024-25 season at conference rival Daytona State. The 5'7 guard is from Orlando, Florida and played at Timber Creek High School.

The combo guard has played in 11 games this season for the Saints and is shooting 39.4 % from the field, including 22.2% from behind the 3-pt line. She is also averaging 3.0 points and 1.5 assists per game.

Spence has been noticed by her teammates and coaches for her incredibly positive attitude on and off the court. She brings her best each day and has stepped up as a veteran leader despite being in her first season with Santa Fe. She totaled 21 points over two combined games in November, going a cumulative 8-17 with 9 rebounds and 11 assists.

She is pursuing a degree in Business and enjoys baking all sorts of food items when not on the court. Spence currently holds the assist record for her high school and played AAU for FGB.
