Towson guard Shariah Baynes brings playmaking, defensive energy and toughness
In the 2024-25 season, Shariah Baynes emerged as a steady Towson rotation guard, averaging 4.1 points, 2.3 assists and 1.4 rebounds in 23.4 minutes per game while starting 14 of 27 games.[7] Her value is less about volume scoring and more about point-guard skills, defensive activity and reliable minutes: she averaged 0.7 steals per game and showed a history of distributing the ball and creating turnovers dating back to her high school career.[5][7][9] At 5-foot-6, she fits best as a quick, competitive floor leader who can organize an offense and pressure the ball rather than carry a team as a primary scorer.[4][7]
