Duquesne’s Sophomore Sharpshooter with Elite Triple Volume and All-Season Grit
In the 2025-26 season, Mackenzie Blackford averaged 10.6 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.5 assists per game while shooting 35.1% from the field, but her true differentiator is her program-tied 75 triples in a single season—ranking seventh all-time at Duquesne[3]. She appeared in all 31 games with 27 starts, showcasing unmatched durability and intensity, never missing a contest despite the grueling college schedule[3]. At 5'8" from Solon, OH, Blackford brings a fearless, high-pressure shooting mentality and a coachable, team-first personality that elevates Duquesne’s perimeter offense. Her consistency and triple-volume leadership make her a perfect fit for teams needing a reliable, high-intensity guard who thrives under pressure and doesn’t rely on flashy stats to win[2][3].
