Stefanie Dolson (born January 8, 1992) is an American professional basketball player for the Chicago Sky of the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA). She was drafted 6th overall by the Washington Mystics in the 2014 WNBA Draft. Dolson played center for the UConn women's basketball team, and won back to back national championships in 2013 and 2014.

Dolson attended Minisink Valley High School in Slate Hill, New York. She played volleyball and basketball and was a member of the National Honor Society. During her junior year she averaged 18.9 points, 16.7 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 6.2 blocks. As a senior, she averaged 22.8 points, 17.6 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 5.2 blocks.

Dolson led Minisink Valley High School to four straight New York State Public High School Athletic Association Section 9 championship game appearances and finished her career at Minisink Valley with 1,951 points and 1,607 rebounds. She was a McDonald's High School All-American and participated in the All-Star game where she had 12 points and eight rebounds in the McDonald’s All-American Game.

It's rare for Dolson to start but since All-American center Tina Charles graduated, Dolson started her freshmen year at Uconn, but she struggled. She tied her career high 24 points in 2011 Big East championship game vs Notre Dame and was named to the 2010-11 BIG EAST All-Tournament Team and was named to Big East Rookie Team along with teammate Bria Hartley.

In her sophomore year she led the Huskies in rebounding pulling down 6.0 grabs per game and was the leader in blocks with 57. Dolson tallied 20 double-figure performances, including four 20-plus games. Dolson opened up the season with a bang going 6-for-6 from the floor for 12 points and added seven rebounds against Holy Cross on 11/13. Recorded a team-high 20 points as she went 10-for-16 in the Final Four on April 1 against Notre Dame.
