Kalu Anya brought an Ivy League education and a blue-collar game to Saint Louis when he transferred from Brown. A native of Worcester, Massachusetts, Anya prepped at Doherty Memorial High School before spending his junior and senior years at IMG Academy in Florida. He committed to Brown in 2021 and developed into one of the Bears' key players over two seasons. As a sophomore in 2023-24, Anya ranked second on the team in rebounding at 7.4 per game and third in scoring at 9.6 points. His breakout came against first-place Cornell, where he erupted for 23 points and 17 rebounds to earn Ivy League Player of the Week honors. Anya transferred to Saint Louis in April 2024 and made an immediate impact in 2024-25, averaging 6.5 points and a team-best 7.5 rebounds per game while ranking third in the Atlantic 10 in rebounding. The 6-foot-8 forward returned for the 2025-26 season, providing the Billikens with toughness and physicality on the glass.
