Staysha Whitley, Ironwood, MI, re-signs with the Samsons Rainbow 6 Siege team. Whitley was a critical piece of the equation for our Samsons R6 team last year. Joining last minute for the Spring season, Whitley had little experience in the competitive circle of R6; however, over the course of the Spring '23 season the gaps in knowledge and practice filled in quickly. We are thrilled to welcome Staysha back onto the team, and get her back on the trail of another National Championship.

Quote from Coach Little:

"Staysha's skills rapidly expanded from the beginning of the Spring season to the Championship match. A very clever and aggressive player, Staysha uses corners and blind spots with great effectiveness. She is often the middle-line between the final defense and flanking members of the team. This plays to her unique skills of surprise attacks and intuitive maneuvers. We'll undoubtedly be seeing more growth from Whitely over the course of the Fall season which makes her a huge threat to teams that will be unable to gage her play style."
