Brianna McDermott brings freshman shooting touch and tough guard energy to Holy Cross
McDermott, a 5'6" freshman guard for Holy Cross, has flashed a useful perimeter skill set and a confident free-throw stroke, while also giving the Crusaders a scrappy, high-motor backcourt option. In the 2025-26 season, she averaged 2.2 points, 1.3 rebounds, and 0.8 assists per game, and her recruiting background suggests real upside: she was a three-time team captain in high school, a four-time FAA first-team pick, and scored 1,000+ career points. For a team needing a gritty, shot-ready guard who competes, she’s an intriguing fit.
