Del Rosario appeared in 28 games off the bench for LSU in her second season with the program and averaged 2.0 points and 2.0 rebounds per contest. She averages of 3.5 points and 2.9 rebounds for her career.

Poa, a guard, averaged 3.5 points and 2.0 assists per game in 102 games (27 starts) for LSU over three seasons, including a career-low 2.0 points and 1.9 assists in 2024-25.
