She set a tournament record with 37 rebounds and in the semifinal win over Utica she recorded the program’s first 20-point, 20-rebound game in 25 years. Steele closed out the season scoring in double figures in the last 15 games and finished with six double-doubles, including games of 25 points/19 rebounds and 20 points/17 rebounds at Elmira. She matched a career high with five blocked shots in the title game win over the Soaring Eagles. She was named to the Empire 8 Presidents’ List following the fall and spring semesters.
